Tea With… James Harynuk
Are mass spectral search libraries like crooked politicians? James Harynuk applies thermodynamic common sense to find the answer.
Riva 2014 (the 38th ISCC and 11th GCxGC Symposium) saw the beginning of a new video series: “Tea With Rich” – you may have already seen interviews with Luigi Mondello and Chiara Cordero at Riva del Garda in the gardens of a beautiful old villa.
For the third and final instalment from Riva, James Harynuk finds himself in great need of a cup of tea after 18 hours of travel, but dispatches jet lag to discuss GCxGC thermodynamics and the potential black box of chemometrics.

Rich Whitworth completed his studies in medical biochemistry at the University of Leicester, UK, in 1998. To cut a long story short, he escaped to Tokyo to spend five years working for the largest English language publisher in Japan. "Carving out a career in the megalopolis that is Tokyo changed my outlook forever. When seeing life through such a kaleidoscopic lens, it's hard not to get truly caught up in the moment." On returning to the UK, after a few false starts with grey, corporate publishers, Rich was snapped up by Texere Publishing, where he spearheaded the editorial development of The Analytical Scientist. "I feel honored to be part of the close-knit team that forged The Analytical Scientist – we've created a very fresh and forward-thinking publication." Rich is now also Content Director of Texere Publishing, the company behind The Analytical Scientist.
