The voice of analytical chemistry
The GDCh Division of Analytical Chemistry has around 2,400 members and has represented analytical chemistry in Germany since its foundation in 1951. It links universities, training institutions, authorities, industry, equipment manufacturers and independent laboratories as well as the media. It gives analytical chemistry a strong voice in science, business, politics and the public and promotes training in analytical chemistry. Intensive, relevant work is carried out in the nine working groups and in the Industry Forum Analytics.
The Board of the Division intensively involves the younger members ( Young Analytical Chemists ) - also by electing two Young Analytical Chemists to the Board.

The Division hosts ANAKON, the central scientific Conference , in odd-numbered years. Plenary and discussion lectures, as well as poster presentations, convey the main focus of scientific progress and the most important results from research and development.
The Division participates in the organization of the analytica conference, which takes place in even-numbered years during the analytica trade fair in Munich, through its participation in the scientific committee and the organization of the scientific program.
In addition, special support is given to Conferences of the Divisions, working groups and international analytical conferences on German soil .
Every two years, the Division of Analytical Chemistry awards the Clemens-Winkler Medal (lifetime achievement in science) and the Analytical Chemistry Division Award (young scientists). Information on other prizes awarded by the Division and its working groups can be found under Prizes and Awards.
The Fresenius Award of the GDCh honors individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the scientific development and promotion of analytical chemistry.
The organ of the Division of Analytical Chemistry is the membership magazine, which is published four times a year.
The Division supports the activities of young scientists through a generous scholarship program to (co-)finance active participation in national and international Conferences, seminars or workshops.
The Young Analytical Chemists provide two members of the specialist group board and organize annual meetings and other events for young analytical professionals.
The aim of the Spring School block course is to familiarize Master's students with analytical methods and issues of industrial analytics.
