Automation and Analytical Management Group

Connect with colleagues in your field and become involved in your scientific community

Purpose and scope

The Automation and Analytical Management Group is one of the RSC's many Interest Groups. The Interest Groups are member driven groups which exist to benefit RSC members, and the wider chemical science community, in line with the RSC's strategy and charter.

Aims

The primary objective of the Group is to extend the knowledge, understanding and application of all aspects of automated analytical and process chemistry. This includes the use of information technology to acquire and manage analytical data, to administer laboratory operations and to process and store derived management information.

The role of the Group is to provide a forum for the discussion of those aspects of analytical methodology which use, or could usefully benefit from, automation to:

  • control the analytical process
  • convert the data produced into meaningful information
  • manage its subsequent storage or transmission to the point of use.

The scope of these activities covers both laboratory and process applications.

Benefits of joining this group

  • Advance notice of relevant events, meetings and conferences and courses
  • Reduced registration fees for meetings
  • Networking opportunities
  • General info of various topics associated with the interest group and related RSC  Subject Communities
  • Keeps members up-to-date with current developments within the sector and promotes Continuous Professional Development

Committee

The committee members listed are responsible for designing programmes that will advance chemistry in the subject area (or local area for LS), helping the RSC to meet its aims, engaging with and supporting our members.

We are always keen to welcome new members to the committee. When vacancies arise, we circulate a “Call for Committee”, where an email is sent to all members of the group to make them aware of new opportunities to join the committee. 

It is important to have diverse representation on committees to consider the needs of our membership. All RSC members are welcome to stand for committee positions when vacancies are advertised.
