Martin Ruzicka

Martin Ruzicka is a Research Fellow at Tallinn University of Technology’s School of Science, Department of Chemistry and Biotechnology. His career includes roles as a Post-Doc (2021–2023), Research Fellow (2020), and Postdoctoral Researcher (2018–2020). He holds a Doctor’s Degree (2018) from Charles University and the Czech Academy of Sciences, focusing on biomolecular interactions via affinity capillary electrophoresis.

His research emphasizes analytical chemistry, particularly portable analytical devices like the handheld drugmeter for GHB analysis, and environmental in situ soil analysis. He led the Handheld Drugmeter for quantitative GHB analysis project (2021–2023), funded by the Estonian Research Council, and contributed to projects advancing regulatory analytical methods.

• Education: PhD in Analytical Chemistry (2018), Charles University; Postdoctoral training at Tallinn University of Technology.
• Grants: €108k (MOBJD1015), €613k (IUT33-20), and €315k (LEP18060) for drug analysis and environmental projects.

His work bridges environmental and forensic applications, with a focus on portable instrumentation and biomolecular interactions. Collaborations include teams at TalTech and international conferences (e.g., Flow Analysis XV).
