Purpose and scope

The Electroanalytical Sensing Systems Group is one of our many Interest Groups. The Interest Groups are member-driven groups which exist to benefit our members, and the wider chemical science community, in line with our strategy and charter. The Electroanalytical Sensing Systems Group of the Royal Society of Chemistry represents and co-ordinates the interests of a very wide range of scientists involved with all aspects of electroanalytical chemistry.

Aims

The aim of the Electroanalytical Sensing Systems Group is to promote the study and application of electroanalytical chemistry.

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

Get involved

The group is run by a committee of RSC members who are always keen to hear from group members. If you have any suggestions as to what you would like to see your group doing please do not hesitate to contact the secretary.

Activities

The Group achieves its aims primarily through the organisation of timely scientific meetings addressing new advances and potential applications of relevance to researchers and end-users, whether in academia, industry, clinical, environmental or government laboratories. Technology transfer between researchers and technology users is a central theme of many such meetings.

Annual report

Please get in touch with the Networks Team if you would like to be sent a copy of last year’s annual report for the Electroanalytical Sensing Systems Group.    

Electrochemistry Newsletter

Members maintain contacts and collaborations with other cognate groups in electrochemical science via the Electrochemistry Newsletter. The RSC Electrochemistry Group and the SCI Electrochemistry Group also receive the newsletter.

Bursaries

The Group also supports the attendance of postgraduate students at relevant international scientific meetings by offering assistance with travel and related costs.

What is Electroanalytical Chemistry?

Electroanalytical chemistry, also known as electroanalysis, lies at the interface between analytical science and electrochemistry.

It is concerned with the development, characterisation and application of chemical analysis methods employing electrochemical phenomena. It has major significance in modern analytical science, enabling measurements of the smallest chemical species, the proton, right up to the macromolecules of importance in modern biology.

Electroanalytical Methodologies

Devices and systems have importance in the contemporary laboratory as well as in out-of-laboratory applications. The latter applications are enabled by the role of electroanalysis as a major driving force in modern chemical sensor and biosensor technology as well as electroanalytical detection in microsystems technology.

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.
