At the heart of liquid chromatography lies a column. Because of the importance of the column, we have dedicated a regular place to it in LCGC magazine: “Column Watch.” And what has made “Column Watch” so informative over the years is that it has captured the insights of an insider-someone who really understood the workings of the column and its role in separations: Ron Majors.

At LCGC, our editorial mission revolves around providing practical solutions and nuts and bolts advice to help chromatographers and separation scientists in their labs everyday.

As we move into the dog days of summer, the field of chromatography moves into one of its busiest times of the year, with a series of conferences and symposia on the way.

Current Trends in Mass Spectrometry Goes Global

Editor-in-Chief, David Walsh, weighs in on the impact of homeland security.

As is the case with most industries during these tumultuous economic times, many people are expecting the conference industry to show signs of a major decline at this year?s 60th Pittsburgh Conference and Exposition, set to take place March 8-13, 2009 in Chicago, Illinois.

At a symposium attended almost exclusively by practitioners of chromatography, the one thing they all wanted more of was mass spectrometry information.

In recent months, many readers have inquired about the status of "PharmSep: LCGC's Premier Symposium for Separation Scientists in Pharmaceuticals," and after some initial scheduling issues, there is good news on this front.

I am pleased to announce that this event has officially been rescheduled and is ready to kickoff later this year, from September 9-11, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
