The Learning Science Teaching Innovation Awards support innovation to positively impact teaching quality and enhance student learning.
Applicants are asked to demonstrate how they have led innovation in teaching and learning in their institution. Winners will be chosen by an expert scientific educational panel.
Possible ways you may have innovated teaching and learning:
Solving a problem by improving tools and methods
Improving teaching materials and practices
Developing new digital learni
CAMS has launched its second call for Lectureships, PostDocs and PhDs, inviting responses to specific industry challenges aligned to the 4x CAMS themes:
Funding will be available for Lectureships, PostDocs and PhDs, noting that all bidders are expected to have secured co-funding that at least matches CAMS’s contribution (Lectureship - £200k, PostDoc - £100k and PhD -
World demand for analytical science skills has grown at an unprecedented rate. Now more than ever, it is important for analytical chemists to have access to the latest knowledge to address the world’s challenges.
To help chemists increase their skill
The Analytical Chemistry Trust Fund (ACTF) and Community for Analytical Measurement Science (CAMS) are pleased to announce this year’s CAMS Fellowship call.
Purpose and Criteria of CAMS Fellowships
The ACTF-CAMS partnership provides funding for a range of initiatives to support the development of analytical measurement science talent. The objective of the ACTF is to promote, assist and extend the science and study of analytical chemistry, and of all questions relating to the analysis, nature and
Well, what a difference a few weeks make! I hope this finds you and yours well and coping with our flexible working revolution in parallel with home schooling, social distancing, excessive gardening and interesting hairstyles!
More than ever, the importance of community is central in everyone’s minds and this is increasingly true for the measurement sector globally. In recent weeks we have heard senior government officials comment on how testing is going to be important for a long time ahead and

With this the first blog of the year, January has passed us by already, as CAMS enters an important phase in its journey.
With the CAMS Ltd entity established in a flurry of end of year activity, it has been business as usual this month - continuing to assign the initial stakeholder contributions to build on the 3 lectureships, 10 fellowships and 3 post-doctoral positions being added through CAMS to the wider analytical family around the UK. Focus is shifting also towards the longer term sustain
Welcome to the latest CAMS newsletter; as we approach the end of 2019 we would like to thank everyone for all their support and hard work.
Whilst the idea of CAMS and the discussions for its inception have been long in the making, this year saw a num
CAMS Fellowship Awards 2019
The CAMS fellowship awards for 2019 have been announced. The purpose of the award is to assist early career analytical chemists within 5 years of their first full-time junior academic appointment at a UK or Irish HEI to establish their own independent analytical science research identity. Congratulations to this year’s recipients:
Whether you are an individual, a University, an SME, an instrument manufacturer or a multi-national organisation there is a CAMS membership for you!
