Dr. Julius Reitemeier has a multidisciplinary background in bioanalytical chemistry, electrochemistry, material science, semiconductor engineering, and organic chemistry. Dr. Reitemeier's research experience encompasses the design of advanced biosensors utilizing nano-scale fabrication techniques and functional polymers for detection of FDA-regulated impurities in drug formulations. At Exponent, he specializes in registration of pesticide products regulated under EPA's Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) and coordinates regulatory support at the federal and state levels, including the preparation of registration packages for new products.

During his graduate studies, Dr. Reitemeier led two industry collaborations with pharmaceutical companies for the development of electrochemical nanosensors to detect impurities in drug formulations. He has further completed his Ph.D. at the University of Notre Dame after receiving the prestigious Dr. Sophie-Bernthsen Award at the University of Heidelberg in 2021. Additionally, he serves as peer-reviewer for multiple chemistry journals, including the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
