Dr. Sandau is happy to be a speaker at the #JMPDiscoverySummit on Wednesday March 10. He will be discussing statistics in forensic investigations, and how we use @JMP_software to further our investigations. More information is here: https://bit.ly/3098Vo8

Dr. Sandau is looking forward to presenting and talking with @bmss_official and the British Mass Spectrometry Society’s 2021 International Seminar Series. He will be talking about the cool science we do at Chemistry Matters and the path he took in his career to get where he is today - from lab scientist to entrepreneur.

Next week on Tuesday, Dr. Sandau will again present to @AGATlabs 2021 #TechTalks. His presentation "Oh, the Samples You’ll Run and Things you will See GCxGC Analysis is Definitely for me!" occurs on March 9 from 8:30-9:30AM (MST). For more information go here: https://bit.ly/3uIlKUR

Dog lovers will love this post and anyone that likes animals will too! Dog's noses are amazing and can be trained to even be more amazing. As part of 'Fire Friday', here is a snippet video from a seminar from Dr. Court Sandau on how an accelerant detection canine's nose works and why it is better than a laboratory in detecting ignitable liquid residues. A recent publication using #GCxGC demonstrated that these dogs are in fact more sensitive than our best instrumentation. #forensics #arsoninvestigation Click on link to learn how the dog's nose works; https://bit.ly/2NJNaZv

Model Monday at Chemistry Matters also means a reminder of short course offered by Chemistry Matters at PITTCON. Most of our chemistry work involves a lot of data. Environmental contaminant data for our litigation and environmental forensics work. Chemical data from our arson and petroleum forensics work. Even routine soil and ground water monitoring programs for better data interpretation. Once you have that data, what do you do with it? Our own Mike Dereviankin will be... teaching a course on that very topic. Data Analytics and Statistics in Quantitative Chemical Analysis Chemometric Workflow for Forensic Investigations. If you are thinking of attending Pittcon 2021 (in New Orleans March 6-10), make sure to sign up for this great course.
