Celebrating our Analytical Division 2021 Prize Winners
Through its prizes programme, our Analytical Division celebrates the individuals and teams from industry and academic across all career stages who contribute to the advances in analytical science as well as recognises the novel discoveries in the field.
Winners are selected by the Analytical Division Awards Committee, chaired by the Analytical Division President.
Members of our Analytical Division are recognised throughout the RSC Prize portfolio. We'd like to congratulate all the 2021 Prize Winners.
