Celebrating the 20th Anniversary of NIR Spectroscopy at the University of Innsbruck,Austria: Contributions to material-,bio-,medicinal plant and food analysis
On 30 July 2018, Tomas Hirschfeld award was given by Dan Klevisha in the name of FOSS instruments and Peter Tillman (treasurer of CNIRS) to Christian Huck (Figure 1), who presented and explained in his lecture ‘the establishment and development of NIR spectroscopy’ at the Leopold-Franzens University of Innsbruck, Austria. The developments in the field of NIR spectroscopy during the past 20 years presented during this presentation have been summarized in this contribution in an overview manner.
