Erika Cremer (20 May 1900, Munich – 21 September 1996, Innsbruck) was a German physical chemist and Professor Emeritus at the University of Innsbruck[1] who is regarded as one of the most important pioneers in gas chromatography,[1] as she second conceived the technique in 1944,[1] after Richard Synge and Archer J.P. Martin in 1941.[2][3][4]
