Delegates met with staff, browsed our books and journals and enjoyed a free coffee

We had a range of top titles on display, including Analyst, Analytical Methods, Journal of Analytical Atomic Spectrometry (JAAS) and the flagship general chemistry journal, Chemical Science.

And, as always, our books generated lots of interest, including UHPLC in Life Sciences, Practical Statistics for the Analytical Scientist and our popular science title, Science of Chocolate.

Thank you to everyone that entered our competition to win a Kindle Fire. Congratulations to our lucky winner: Carina Berglund from the University of Gothenburg in Sweden!
