AnupamGiri, PhD
I am an analytical scientist who moved from food and flavour chemistry into petrochemicals, advanced chromatography and mass spectrometry, and now AI for analytics. Great analysis turns complex molecular data into decisions people can act on.

Perspectives
AI meets analytical science
AI can automate and scale the interpretation of GC×GC, HRMS and NMR data, freeing experts to focus on insight.
Data over intuition
Chemometrics turn rich data into defensible answers.
Collaboration
Industry, universities and instrument makers move faster together.
Circular plastics need analytics
Recycling pyrolysis oil into new feedstock depends on knowing exactly what is in it, from chlorine to silicone.
