Analyst, 2011, 136(15): 3025-3204
Issue 15 is now available online, and we publish the first of an ongoing collection of articles looking at Grand Challenges in analytical science. In celebration of the International Year of Chemistry, leading scientists (including our own Board members) have put together papers outlining the current challenges faced in analytical science, and how these might be tackled.
There are contributions in this issue from Lloyd Smith, and from Board members Pavel Matousek, Takehiko Kitamori and Facundo Fernandez. Pavel’s minireview is also highlighted on the inside cover.
