November 2019 Issue of The Analytical Scientist

Fingerprint detection, radiocarbon emissions and heart disease biomarkers – our November issue spans all wavelengths of the analytical spectrum. In our cover feature, Dirk Schulze-Makuch and Sam Kounaves take us on an out-of-this-world tour of the cosmos to help answer one of life’s great questions: “are we alone?” Plus, we speak with the man whose rap about chromatographic column insulation wowed at the HPLC Separation Science Slam, Matt Baker discusses spectroscopic brain cancer diagnosis, and Janusz Pawliszyn reflects on an enriching career.
