In June 2023 The Community of Analytical Science (CAMS), the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) and The Chromatographic Society (ChromSoc) organised the event ‘The State of Separation Science in the UK' with the aim of identifying, with the help of prominent UK and international experts in Separation Science, specific actions that the Separation Science community can take to rectify the situation and address future needs. The event highlighted recommendations and requirements for the field with a view to encourage policy dialogue with funding and other bodies.
