Presenting GC Data Comparisons to Laypersons to Understand Potential Courtroom Implications
January 6th 2025In forensic science, scientific testimony is routinely presented in court to juries who may have limited or no scientific background, putting law enforcement and defense personnel in the position of having to make rapid decisions in short timeframes based on findings of which they are not specialists. Katelynn Perrault Uptmor, Assistant Professor of Chemistry at William & Mary (Williamsburg, Virginia) believes that the introduction of new technologies into the framework of routine forensic analysis must therefore bridge the gap between introduction of new and novel analytical science and the communication of that science to a court of law, and that analytical chemistry research must be mindful of the need to fill this gap in promoting new technologies.
Detailed Glycosylation Analysis of Therapeutic Enzymes Utilizing Comprehensive 2D-LC–MS

Advancing Gene Therapy: Enzyme Selection for Effective RNA Oligonucleotide Mapping
New gene therapy modalities, such as CRISPR guide RNA (single guide ribonucleic acid [sgRNA]) and messenger RNA (mRNA), continue to make progress in both primate and first-in-human trials. As this progress builds, the industry remains accountable for characterizing these molecules to meet the requirements of regulatory authorities.
