The Coblentz Society’s Williams-Wright Award for Industrial Spectroscopy is presented annually at Pittcon to an industrial spectroscopist who has made significant contributions to vibrational spectroscopy while working in industry. This year’s Williams-Wright Award winner is Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Petrich of Roche Diabetes Care GmbH, Mannheim, Germany and Heidelberg University in recognition of his his work in the development and application of biomedical applications of infrared-based clinical laboratory instrumentation in the fields of metabolism, rheumatology, cardiology, and veterinary medicine as well as pioneering applications of quantum cascade laser (QCL) technology to biology and medicine.
