Welcome to our latest HPLC Special Series e-book – a curated collection of expert perspectives and forward-thinking discussions from the cutting edge of separation science.
Inside, thought leaders including Gert Desmet, Deirdre Cabooter, Fabrice Gritti, Martina Catani, Wim De Malsche, and André de Villiers weigh in on the future of high-performance liquid chromatography. From the rise of AI and sustainability in method development to bold innovations like vortex chromatography and pillar-array technology, the field continues to evolve in response to emerging analytical challenges.
We revisit the provocative question posed a decade ago – have we reached the limits of liquid chromatography? – with our experts offering both evolutionary insights and revolutionary ideas. Whether discussing shrinking column formats, improving instrument design, or overcoming sample complexity in omics and environmental studies, this collection highlights the creativity and resilience of the chromatographic community.
Also featured: a closer look at HPLC 2025 and reflections from leading academic voices on what it will take to train the next generation of chromatographers and elevate analytical science’s role in global problem-solving.
