We're celebrating all things spectroscopy in our "Spectroscopy Takeover" issue this September. On offer: a round table-style discussion about SciX with key figures from the conference (see our "The Spectroscopy Superbowl" feature), an extended interview with Chris Palmer (SciX Governing Board Chair), and an upfront section dedicated to the latest breakthroughs in the field. And spectroscopy also makes an appearance in our cover feature - "Piracy in the Pantry" - in which the US FDA talk us through the analyses integral to keeping consumers safe. We're also continuing our (bio)pharma theme with an In My View section dedicated to leading views on drug analysis. Enjoy!

Progress in any field is expected if not inevitable; as technology advances and as new knowledge is gained, iterative improvements feed a baseline of linear evolution. But there are also often leaps forward – true innovations. Here, we look back on the first 50 years of HPLC instrumentation and select the Top 10 (okay, you got me, a tie made it a Top 11) breakthroughs that paved the way for the technique we know today.
