New publication in Spectrochimica Acta Part A: Molecular and Biomolecular Spectroscopy. Congratulations to Elliot  Tay, Jono Barnsley, Keith Gordon who worked with Otago alumni Daniel Thomas (Massey, Auckland) for their recent publication “Elucidating the resonance Raman spectra of Psittacofulvins” https://doi.org/10.1016/j.saa.2021.120146 This work describes how resonance Raman spectroscopy can be used to figure out the pigment […]

Congratulation to Chima Robert, Sara Miller and Keith Gordon who, with Otago medical researchers, recently published a paper entitled “Molecular monitoring of glioblastoma’s immunogenicity using a combination of Raman spectroscopy and chemometrics” Spectrochimica Acta A (2021) 252 119534 https://doi.org/10.1016/j.saa.2021.119534 This study explores how you can use Raman spectroscopy to detect glioma associated neuroinflammation caused by […]

Congratulations to Garagoda Arachchige Piumika Samanali who defended her PhD in January. Samanali’s thesis was entitled “Using Vibrational Spectroscopy and Chemometrics to Understand Structure and Properties in Biological Systems”. Samanali currently is working at Oritain in Dunedin.
