- A paper we were recently involved in titled ‘Human breath metabolomics using an optimized non-invasive exhaled breath condensate sampler’ published in the Journal of Breath Research (JBR) last year has been selected to be part of the journal’s Highlights of 2017 collection. This selection of articles includes some of the best and most influential research published in JBR last year, representing cutting-edge topics in breath analysis related research. Please visit http://iopscience.iop.org/journal/1752-7163/page/Highlights-of-2017 to read the Highlights collection.
- Look for our upcoming review in a special issue of Separations – Development of Analytical Methods for Clarification of Biological Phenomena: “Methods and applications of metabolomics for discovery and food safety” by Balasubramanian Ganesan and Bart C. Weimer.
- Our work with the Mars/IBM Global Food Safety Consortium was highlighted in PNAS – Thanks to Carolyn Bean for the great article.
