In the fifth episode from ISC2014, Peter Schoenmakers ponders whether analytical science has become as competitive as professional sports. “You try to get into the team, but you get rejected all the time.” With it being more difficult to obtain grants and to make a name for yourself, science is more challenging than ever before, particularly for young scientists. But there is one key difference between getting on a soccer team and getting into the science ‘team’ - scientists are willing to help one another to be successful. Peter discusses the importance of collaborating, the analytical issues of the future, and one and a half-dimensional chromatography.
