This last measurement has long been problematic for researchers, mass spectrometers get increasingly accurate and powerful, but are still hindered by the simple fact that observed signal intensity does not necessarily correlate directly with the [...]
I am still catching up on my podcast backlog after my 2 week holiday in August. The excellent ‘More or Less’ provided the gem of a quote in the title during a discussion about meta-analyses.
