 sat down with Mary Ellen McNally, of FMC Corporation, to discuss her recent presentations at the Eastern Analytical Symposium, which took place in mid-November. McNally also shared a sneak peak for what readers can expect for upcoming Sample Preparation columns coming in 2025.

 is an FMC Fellow at the Stine Research Center for FMC Corporation. Dr. McNally was named to the Analytical Scientist Power List as one of the Top 50 most influential women in the analytical sciences, has received the American Microchemical Society Steyermark Award in the field of microanalysis, the Chromatography Forum of Delaware Valley Award for contributions to the field of chromatography, and has been recognized for her contributions to the field of supercritical fluids by the Midwest SFC Discussion and the Tri-State Analytical Supercritical Fluid Discussion Groups.

Recently, we talked with Mary Ellen McNally about her experiences at EAS 2024 and her expectations for sustainable laboratory practices in 2025.

EAS 2024: Mary Ellen McNally Interview

In the interview, Mary answered the following questions:

You chaired a session at EAS on sustainability and next-level developments in the analytical laboratory. What emerging trends in this area do you believe our readers should be paying close attention to?

What are some sustainable laboratory practices that you highlighted in your presentation at EAS?

The second session you chaired focused on new developments in separation science. What emerging trends in this field do you believe our readers should be watching closely?

 columnist for LCGC, can you share a sneak peek of what exciting topics or insights our readers can look forward to in the coming year?

Mary Ellen McNally Reflects on Sustainable Laboratory Practices and Their Future in 2025

At the 2024 Eastern Analytical Symposium (EAS), held from November 18–20 in Plainsboro, NJ, scientists gathered to discuss the latest advancements in analytical chemistry. As part of our conference coverage, we interviewed Jim Grinias of Rowan University about his conference experience and his expectations for 2025.

is an associate professor of chemistry and biochemistry at Rowan University, and a member of the EAB for 

. His research typically focuses on the fundamental development of liquid chromatography (LC) columns in capillaries and microfluidic devices.

Recently, we talked with Jim Grinias of Rowan University about his experiences at EAS 2024 and his expectations for analytical chemistry trends in 2025.

EAS 2024: Jim Grinias Interview

In the interview, Jim answered the following questions:

As the chair of a session at EAS on new detection methods in separation science, what emerging techniques are you currently seeing making an impact in the field?

Are there any novel detection methods you're currently most interested in exploring or think our readers should be paying attention to?

Looking ahead to 2025, what emerging trends do you see shaping the future of separation science?

 about historical landmarks associated with analytical chemistry and the American Chemical Society’s National Historic Chemical Landmarks program. What landmarks stood out to you and why?
