Description
During the discussion, we mention a few terms-LCMS – Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry is an analytical technique wherein complex mixtures of chemical are separated by liquid chromatography, then subjected to mass analysis in a mass spectrometer. This often gives detailed information about the composition of the chemical mixtures.NMR autosampler – A device which automatically takes samples of a chemical or chemical mix and then makes it available for Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) analysis. The chemical mixes are subject to measurement while in a strong magnetic field, giving information about the structure of the sample under examination.Copper iodide – A metallic compound, with chemical formula CuI, also known as cuporous oxide. As well as applications in organic synthesis (to which Nessa was referring), it is used in cloud seeding.If you want to connect with Nessa and hear about what she’s doing, you can find her:@SuperScienceGrl on Twitter - https://twitter.com/SuperScienceGrlOn LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/nessacarson/You’ll also find a number of articles she has written if you head over to www.chemistryworld.com, such as her articles on “Am I really a scientist”or“How many papers do you read a week?”We also talk about another great Chemistry account on Twitter - @chemjobber – “The king and emperor of chemistry twitter” for more information on chemistry job markets.

Nessa Carson – Chemistry with ROBOTS!: For episode 3 of the Modern Chemistry show, I interviewed Nessa Carson, (@SuperScienceGrl on Twitter). Nessa currently works for a pharmaceutical company in the UK, in high throughput Chemistry and has previously worked for AMRI in a similar role. We discuss how robots have helped her in her work, but also how interdisciplinary modern chemistry needs to be. by Modern Chemistry Podcast
