After two and a half years at LCGC International, I reflect on my journey of growth, learning, and deep appreciation for the chromatography community and the people who make it thrive.

In the sixth part of this roundtable discussion focused on the experiences, challenges, and contributions of women in chromatography, LCGC International spoke to Susanne Boye, Daniela Held, and Claudia Zielke about the practical skills needed to lead a lab.

Jessica Lin and Zhenqi (Pete) Shi from Genentech describe a novel machine learning approach to predicting retention times for small molecule pharmaceutical compounds across reversed-phase high perfromance liquid chromatography (HPLC) columns.

Andrew Anderson shares insights on the factors that may shape the next major advance in pharmaceutical informatics strategy.

Researchers developed a technique optimizing the extraction process of six cannabinoids in cannabis oil and marijuana samples, as well as an analytical validation of a quantitative and qualitative method for seven cannabinoids, using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography coupled with low-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-LTQ-MS).

How might the relationship between human and machine evolve over the coming years?

Responding to a lack of sensitive analytical methods for detecting associated medications in complex wastewater matrices, researchers at the University of Louisville developed and validated a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method using multiple reaction monitoring for 10 common respiratory pharmaceuticals.

In the fifth part of this roundtable discussion focused on the experiences, challenges, and contributions of women in chromatography, LCGC International spoke to Susanne Boye, Daniela Held, and Claudia Zielke about the power of networking.

This article explores the diverse career paths where analytical sciences PhDs create impact in fundamentally different ways than traditional research roles, and provides practical guidance on how to pursue them.

A research team comprised of members of the University of Liège and the College of William & Mary developed a robust analytical workflow to profile volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted during accelerated thermal aging of smokeless powders formulated with those green stabilizers. Headspace solid-phase microextraction coupled with comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography–time-of-flight mass spectrometry (HS-SPME–GC×GC–TOFMS) provided high peak capacity and sensitive VOC detection. LCGC International spoke to Pierre-Hugues Stefanuto of the University of Liège about this workflow and its potential implications for future research.
