Colette Quinn discusses how LC, high-resolution MS, light scattering, automation and data literacy are transforming QA/QC for increasingly complex biologics.

Samuel Foster discusses capillary LC, from dramatic solvent savings and enhanced ESI-MS sensitivity to extra-column effects, method translation, radiopharmaceuticals, and the future of miniaturized HPLC.

Joseph Corstvet discusses LC–MS lipidomics for monitoring mesenchymal stromal cell senescence, the importance of tandem MS, and triboelectric ionization for more affordable and portable mass spectrometry.

Darshil Patel discusses his path from dentistry to forensic chemistry and explains how GC×GC–TOF-MS reveals complex VOC profiles from human decomposition and supports human-remains detection.

Jay Gandhi discusses ion chromatography, AOF and combustion IC for PFAS analysis, explaining how these techniques complement targeted LC-MS and help reveal the broader fluorine burden.

After returning from the US, immunologist Matouš Vobořil joined Charles University to study immune cell development in the thymus and mechanisms linked to autoimmune diseases.

Join us for an in-depth conversation with Holly Lee, Global Technical Marketing Specialist at SCIEX, as we explore the cutting edge of food and environmental safety testing.

Chemistry educator Natasha Le discusses how students learn separation science, why critical thinking matters more than memorizing procedures, and how future analytical scientists are trained.

Professor Mary Anne O’Connell reflects on her journey from HIV research to RNA editing, explains the role of ADAR enzymes, and discusses RNA therapies, scientific leadership, and resilience in research.
