The first Uwe D. Neue Award was presented at HPLC 2013 in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, to Joseph Jack Kirkland on June 18, 2013. Martin Gilmar and Georges Guichon presented Kirkland with the award, which was followed by a keynote presentation called Optimized Superficially Porous Particles for Protein Analysis, given by Kirkland, a former senior scientist at Agilent Technologies (Santa Clara, California) and current vice president of research and development at Advanced Materials Technology (Strongsville, Ohio).
The award, named for the late Uwe Neue, an outstanding liquid chromatographer who had a 34-year career with Waters Corporation, is presented to an industrial scientist who, like Uwe, has made significant contributions to the field of separation science and has strived to see these implemented in commercial products.

Using LC-MS/MS to Measure Testosterone in Dried Blood Spots
December 19th 2024Testosterone measurements are typically performed using serum or plasma, but this presents several logistical challenges, especially for sample collection, storage, and transport. In a recently published article, Yehudah Gruenstein of the University of Miami explored key insights gained from dried blood spot assay validation for testosterone measurement.
