Analytically Speaking

LCGC & Spectroscopy

Analytically Speaking, the podcast from LCGC and Spectroscopy magazines, addresses important issues in separation science and analytical spectroscopy. Topics include new analytical techniques, methods, and approaches; the latest trends; advances in instrument and software technology; practical solutions for specific applications; recent papers in the scientific literature and their applicability; challenges and solutions for data analysis and interpretation; analytical chemistry theory and fundamentals (from advanced research to tutorials and troubleshooting); and more. Our regular hosts are Dwight Stoll, PhD, a professor of chemistry at Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, Minnesota, and Jerry Workman, PhD, a spectroscopist, noted author, and currently the Senior Technical Editor of Spectroscopy and LCGC. Dwight covers separation science and Jerry addresses spectroscopy related topics.

    Ep. 44: Be a Nice Person

    In this episode, podcast co-hosts Dr. Dwight Stoll and Dr. James Grinias talk with Dr. Pierre-Hugues (PH) Stefanuto who is an Associate Professor and Lead Scientist in the Molecular System Research Unit at University of Liège in Liège, Belgium. He previously received both his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees from the same institution. Following his graduate work in Liege he was a postdoctoral research fellow at Dartmouth College. He is a recognized world expert in multidimensional gas chromatography, where he focuses on profiling volatile organic compound mixtures in various life science samples. Currently, he is focused on developing multi-omics screening approaches to tackle biomedical challenges at the molecular level. He has received a number of accolades to date, including the John Phillips Award and Richard Sacks Award, which are two of the highest honors in the field of multidimensional gas chromatography. He is also one of the co-chairs of the ongoing Multidimensional Chromatography Workshop symposium series. In the conversation we talk about PH’s early experiences as a kid scientist, both experimenting in the kitchen at home, and as a laureate of the Chemistry Olympiad in Belgium. We then move on to discuss the Multidimensional Chromatography Workshop - the early days, the alignment with PH’s professional interests, the 17th annual workshop in Williamsburg, VA, and the upcoming 18th workshop in Liège in early 2027. We also talk about the “Century Mix” Project, which was discussed at the Williamsburg with guidance from PH and Dr. John Dimandjia, and has aims to democratize the characterization of GCxGC systems, and provide open datasets for anyone in the community to use. Later in the conversation we briefly discuss two of PH’s recent papers in the GCxGC field, both focused on aspects of data analysis. Finally, we finish with some quick hits, where PH has great advice for young scientists.

    EP 43: An Introduction to Optical Photothermal Infrared (O-PTIR) Spectroscopy

    Here in Episode #43, podcast host Dr. Jerry Workman speaks with Dr. Mustafa Kansiz, who is currently the Director of Product Management at Photothermal Spectroscopy Corporation in Santa Barbara, California. They will be discussing an introduction to optical photothermal infrared (O-PTIR) spectroscopy; the technique, its applications and the newest innovations in O-PTIR and even Photothermal Stimulated Raman Scattering (PT-SRS).

    Ep. 42: Did You Look at the Raw Data?

    In this episode, podcast co-hosts Dr. Dwight Stoll and Dr. James Grinias talk with Professor Kelly Hines. Dr. Hines is an associate professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Georgia in Athens. She received her B.S. degree in Chemistry from the University of Florida, and then completed the Ph.D. in Chemistry at Vanderbilt University. Her doctoral studies focused on monitoring biomolecular signatures of disease via ion mobility and mass spectrometry techniques, and then she moved on to post-doctoral experiences at two different institutions. The first stop was at the metabolomics resource core at the Mayo Clinic, and the second stop was in the Department of Medicinal Chemistry at the University of Washington School of Pharmacy. Kelly has won several awards in the field of chemical analysis, including recognition as a Female Role Model in Analytical Chemistry by Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry, as an Emerging Investigator by the Journal of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry, an ASMS Research Award (which is one of the top honors that young investigators in MS can receive), and very recently was named as the Chemist of the Year by the Northeast Georgia Section of the American Chemical Society. In a wide-ranging conversation, we discuss the early origins of Kelly’s interest in science rooted in her opportunity to explore the plant nursery managed by her father, and then her turn from civil engineering to analytical chemistry inspired by an early undergraduate course “Chemistry for Engineers”. We discuss Hines’ recent and ongoing work involving the use of ion mobility mass spectrometry (IMS-MS), with pre-separation using chromatography when appropriate, for multi-omics studies, aimed at deeper understanding of the biochemistry of organisms at the metabolite level. We also discuss Kelly’s positive experiences developing peer networks through regular attendance at conferences, particularly the American Society for Mass Spectrometry (ASMS) annual meeting, experiences in her second post-doctoral position that inspired her to pursue an academic position, and her approach to mentoring graduate students who show up in her laboratory with diverse backgrounds, interests, and abilities.
