Research interests have included direct analysis of microscale biological systems, chiral separations, automation in dosage form testing and fast separations. As a Director in the Analytical R&D department at Bristol-Myers Squibb, current responsibilities include provision of analytical support for projects ranging from the late discovery stage through worldwide registrational filings. Dr. Lloyd was Contributing Editor of TrAC - Trends in Analytical Chemistry, from 1995 to 2002, and since 1999 he has been Editor of the Journal of Chromatography B.
