7th Aegean Analytical Chemistry Days (AACD2010)

- A Tribute to Freddy Adams and Alan Townshend -

 

The initial aim of the "Aegean Analytical Chemistry Days (AACD)" conferences has always been to bring together the analytical chemists from the countries surrounding Aegean Sea. Since the first event in Izmir, Turkey in 1998, many analytical chemists, and not only, from all over the world, have also attended these biennial conferences. The statistical distribution of those participated in the previous six events showed that the AACD conferences have become an international event, widely accepted as a forum for:

·   presenting new trends and developments in analytical chemistry

·   discussing new applications of environmental, food and industrial analysis with a special emphasis to quality aspects

·   promoting the presentation of young scientists' research

·   exchanging ideas and promoting collaborations for joint research projects

 

The Organizing Committee of the 7th Aegean Analytical Chemistry Days (AACD2010) in collaboration with the Continuation Committee has decided to dedicate the Conference to Emeritus Professors Alan Townshend and Freddy Adams for their achievements in Modern Analytical Chemistry, their support to the young analytical chemists and their help to the establishment of the Aegean meetings as International Conferences.

 

The 7th Aegean Analytical Chemistry Days (AACD2010) will be organized in Mytilene, Lesvos. Accommodation is provided in the Gulf of Gera, a place of outstanding natural beauty. Internationally recognized invited speakers will give Plenary and Keynote Lectures. On the opening ceremony, the tribute to Professors Emeriti Freddy Adams and Alan Townshend will be organized and they will offer us two excellent Opening Honorary Lectures. The organizers will prepare a balanced programme with oral communications of studies of general interest and novelty and young scientists’ contributions, along with thematic poster sessions.

Abstracts will be published in the Book of Abstracts, while full papers will be considered for publication in a special issue of the internationally renowned journal of Analytical Chemistry, Analytical Letters.

The organizing committee is pleased to invite you to participate in the 7th Aegean Analytical Chemistry Days and enjoy with us the stimulating scientific programme and a wonderful social programme.
