False
June 2016
Welcome to the June issue! In Upfront, we share a new approach for imaging the lungs of newborns, innovations in mass spec, and find out how The Hunger Games and PTR-MS helped track the chemistry of group emotion. From peptide chemistry to technology development to the analysis of colorectal cancer, our experts demonstrate the power, potential and inevitability of multi-omic efforts. Finally, we Sit Down With Jessica Prenni, talk food fraud with Petter Olsen and find out what Jenny Van Eyck has learned throughout her varied career.
