September 2018 Issue of The Analytical Scientist

Welcome to our September issue! In Upfront, we open this year’s Innovation Awards, track ancient parrot breeding colonies, and find a faster diagnosis for liver disease. In our cover feature, a mass spec specialist, a biomedical researcher and a multidisciplinary team give us the lowdown on lipidomics, while Albert Robbat serves up some tea analysis. We also look at pixel-based chemical analysis, visit part three of our “innovation in teaching” series, and go from chemistry to kitchen in our interview with Giovanni Dugo.
