In this “Pathways in Spectroscopy” episode, Sarah Theiner discusses what her career transition from research to sales was like, and how her experience at the University of Vienna prepared her for the rigors of her new role at Nu Instruments.

Specac Ltd, a global provider of spectroscopy accessories and sample preparation solutions, has announced the acquisition of Amax Precision Ltd, a Singapore-headquartered company that specializes in high-precision analytical instrument manufacturing.

In this video segment, Sarah Theiner dives into the research that she conducted at the University of Vienna, which focused on how chemoresistance affects drug distribution in the tumor microenvironment.

In the final part of our conversation with Martin Resano, he discusses how the use of partial least squares (PLS) regression improves the quality of the isotopic analysis data.

In this interview clip, we turn the focus to the advent of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in spectroscopy, and Alex Scheeline discusses how AI and ML will enhance SIBS and LIBS calibration.

For Pittcon 2026, the James L. Waters Symposium, scheduled for Monday, March 9, from 2:30 to 4:40 p.m. in Room 221A, turns its focus on Generative artificial intelligence (AI) systems in analytical chemistry, which are increasingly being used for analytical data interpretation, algorithm development, experimental planning, and scientific communication. This article introduces the general concepts of generative AI and its use in spectroscopy.

In the below video segment, we shifted our focus to the future, with Anika Retzmann of the University of Calgary giving her thoughts about what emerging applications will benefit the most from high-precision metal isotope analysis of biological systems.

In the second part of our conversation with Ken Marcus, he discusses the parameters that are most influential in enhancing Nd isotope ratio measurements, and the implications of monitoring oxide species rather than atomic ions for isotope ratio analysis, and the benefits and challenges of this approach.

In the lead-up to the American Academy of Forensic Sciences (AAFS) Conference, we reflect on some of the most pertinent ongoing trends in forensic analysis.

In this video segment, Martin Resano of the University of Zaragoza talks about the challenges and advancements in obtaining isotopic information using atomic spectroscopy.

In the second part of our interview, Alex Scheeline discuss the current trends in SIBS and LIBS, and some of his observations from reading the recent literature on the subject.

In this interview clip, Anika Retzmann of the University of Calgary dives more deeply into the utility of multi-collector microwave inductively coupled atmospheric-pressure plasma mass spectrometry (MC-MICAP-MS) for isotopic analysis.

Spectroscopy is excited to announce the launch of “Pathways in Spectroscopy,” a new video series dedicated to showcasing the experiences, insights, and career journeys of emerging leaders and young scientists across the spectroscopy community.
