July 2016
Welcome to the July issue! In Upfront, we trace the lead in lipstick and meteoritic material in Tutankhamun’s dagger, plus we meet the team analyzing the changing climate’s effect on maple syrup. In My View takes on the dark side of scientific publishing, while in Profession, young scientists are urged to take a leap of faith in their careers. Giuseppe Petrucci shares his fascinating journey through the world of atmospheric chemistry – and from the vast to the very small, Donald Chace discusses the role of forensics in newborn screening.
