For the second time in its history, the International Symposium on Hyphenated Techniques in Chromatography and Separation Technology (HTC) is coming to the UK. The 2018 symposium boasts a fantastic array of speakers. Some of the biggest names in the field (including several Power List awardees) will be imparting their wisdom, while dedicated sessions and presentations give early career researchers their chance to shine. We’re particularly intrigued by the sessions on Big Data and Green Separations, and keynotes by Caroline West, Luigi Mondello and Hans-Gerd Janssen. Read on for more presentations that caught our eye.

Day 1 (24 January 2018)
