EUCHEMS NEWS - European Analytical Column No. 46

Abstract

Regarding the activities of DAC, the year 2018 may be called "the year between", namely between a highly successful EUROANALYIS conference held in Stockholm 2017, and the next one to be held inIstanbulin 2019. The updated DAC strategy for 2018-2020 approved at last years Annual Meeting of DAC defines the promotion of the EUROANALYSIS series of conferences as one of its main themes. Already in 2015, the DAC Steering Committee Members voted forIstanbulas the venue for EUROANALYSIS XX in 2019. As the name of this conference indicates, the venues are rotated between all European countries, but it was believed that the neighbor countries ofEuropeshould be well integrated into the activities of DAC. Therefore, the Turkish Chemical Society will organize this conference inIstanbul(which is often called the bridge between Europe and Asia) from 1st to 5th September 2019 with two chairs, Prof. Dr. Sibel A. Özkan (AnkaraUniversity) and Prof. Dr. Mehmet Mahramanlioglu (Istanbul Univer­sity). The venue will be located in the campus ofIstanbulUniversity, which is in the heart of the city center and very close to road links and public transport.
