Did you miss out on the CAMS Conference this year?
Head over to CAMS Conference 2022 - CAMS-UK to view all recordings from all our fantastic speakers.
ACTF Trustees recognise the disruption that the COVID-19 pandemic has had on analytical science students. We are relaunching a disruption grant of £500 aimed at PhD students whose studies have been adversely affected by the pandemic and need additional monetary support to complete their studies.
Note, this fund is to support personal costs to help enable students to complete their studies for example rent, or other caring or living costs, and cannot be used for laboratory research costs. Stude
Out of the lab and into the field: Rapid on-site Raman testing for food security
There is a fully funded PhD position available for a UK student with Roy Goodacre in the Centre for Metabolomics Research, University of Liverpool.
Project Description:
Major food adulteration and contamination events occur with alarming regularity and are known to be
episodic, with the question being not IF but WHEN another large-scale food safety/integrity incident will
occur. The challenges of maintaining food secu
CAMS is an industry-led initiative aimed at promoting world-class analytical measurement science training, research, and innovation by bringing together a network of industrial and academic partners with interests in these fields. Since the launch of CAMS in 2019, the network has attracted 37 members (15 industrial and 22 academic organisations) and to date has awarded/co-funded 2 analytical chairs, 7 lectureships, 6 postdocs, 5 PhDs across the UK and Ireland with its generous funding support fr

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

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

In 2019 the Analytical Chemistry Trust Fund (ACTF) awarded 30 Summer Studentships of 6-8 weeks duration at 19 Universities, private sector companies and non-HEI public sector organisations across the UK and RoI. Awards are designed to provide experience of research to undergraduates with potential, and to encourage a career in analytical chemistry research once undergraduate studies are complete. ACTF has funded such studentships for many years; however, 2019 was the first year that they were
