SciX

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.

Karen Faulds of the University of Strathclyde co-authored a paper where SESORS signals could be detected from nanotags at depths down to 48 mm for the first time using a handheld spatially offset Raman (SORS) instrument. She recently spoke to Spectroscopy about this and some of her other papers and the advances in the science that made them possible. Faulds is the 2022 recipient of the RSC Analytical Division Mid-Career 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 Covington, Kentucky.

Robin F.B. Turner and James M. Piret are the winners of the 2022 William F. Meggers Award, to be presented this fall at the SciX conference.

Lu Wei, an assistant professor of chemistry at the California Institute of Technology, will be presented with the Emerging Leader in Molecular Spectroscopy Award at the SciX 2022 conference.

Martin Zanni, who is the Meloche-Bascom professor of chemistry at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, is the winner of the 2022 Ellis R. Lippincott Award.

The 2022 Craver Award will be presented to Wei Min at SciX, taking place October 2–7 at the Northern Kentucky Convention Center in Greater Cincinnati.
