Spectroscopy sat down with 2023 Lester W. Strock Awardee Maria Montes-Bayon to talk about her research and what winning the Strock award means to her.
Fresh off his plenary talk at SciX, Wei Xiong sat down with Spectroscopy magazine to talk about his career accomplishments and what he enjoys most about his job.
The opening keynote reviews how FACSS has evolved over a 50-year period, and where it is going in the future.
As a preview to SciX 2023, Spectroscopy magazine sat down with Ishan Barman of Johns Hopkins University to ask him about his thoughts on how artificial intelligence may impact spectroscopic research going forward.
As a preview to SciX 2023, Spectroscopy magazine sat down with Juergen Popp of the Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology to ask him about his research exploring the use of Raman spectroscopy in applications such as infectious diseases and cancer diagnostics.
Bruno Pagano, full Professor of Physical Chemistry at the University of Naples Federico II (Italy), and his team have turned to UV resonance Raman (UVRR) spectroscopy to better understand these interactions. Spectroscopy spoke to Prof. Pagano about his work and the potential of UVRR spectroscopy as a valuable tool for studying G-quadruplex structures in biologically relevant conditions.
Spectroscopy magazine is pleased to announce that on August 29th, we will release a new content series titled, "Spectroscopy and Archaeology," which will recognize the current work of spectroscopists in the field of archaeology.
The detection of life on other planets is a research area of focus for scientists in space exploration. In this Q&A, Andreas Riedo of the Physics Institute at the University of Bern offers his thoughts on how spectroscopy is being used to detect organic molecules that are relevant for life.
On July 20th, 1969, American astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin made history by becoming the first humans to land on the moon. Today, 54 years later, Spectroscopy magazine highlights how spectroscopy is playing a role in advancing space exploration.
The study of exoplanets, or planets outside of our solar system, is becoming increasingly important in space exploration. Scientists are working to characterize these planets and Raman spectroscopy is playing a key role. Andrew Mattioda, a research scientist at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Ames Research Center, is on the front lines of this research.
Spectroscopy magazine is pleased to announce the launch of a new one-day content series titled, “Spectroscopy and Space Exploration,” which will take place this Thursday, July 20th, 2023.
Spectroscopists offer their views on their salaries and the current job market, weighing in on topics such as job security, economic recession, and skill sets of new workers.
Professor Martin Zanni, the Meloche-Bascom Professor of Chemistry at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and his colleagues explored how to resolve diagonal peaks using a polarization scheme that can be implemented in pump-probe beam geometry—not only in two-dimensional infrared (2D-IR) spectroscopy but also in TA spectroscopy. Zanni is the 2022 recipient of the Ellis R. Lippincott Award. This interview is part of an ongoing series of interviews with the winners of awards that are presented at the annual SciX conference, which will be held this year from October 2 through October 7, in the Greater Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky area.
