Learning Without Doing Equals Shortcoming

| Rich Whitworth

Removing practical assessments from science education is illogical, say UK chemical engineers

For God’s Sake

| Rich Whitworth

Was an assistant analytical chemistry professor mistaken to instruct graduates not to “thank God”?

Fields & Applications Genomics & DNA Analysis

Watson and Crick visit the local pub

| Nick Kim

Nick Kim gifts us with his very analytical and amusing view of the world around us.

Fields & Applications Spectroscopy

Inspiration Particles, and Other Misconceptions

| Frank van Geel

Where does inspiration come from? I mean the insight that leads you to a new invention or that suddenly makes you aware of the solution to a problem?

Keeping Tabs on Dioxins

| Jean-François Focant

Exposure to dioxins and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) remains a significant threat to a substantial proportion of the European population. To maintain high levels of vigilance, analytical strategies need to evolve. Here, I propose substantial changes to the EU’s monitoring strategy, changes that channel the power of modern analytical technology to accurately, rapidly and inexpensively monitor food and feed for dioxins, PCBs and as-yet-unidentified toxicants.
