The GDCh Division of Analytical Chemistry) awards the Fresenius Lectureship to renowned young university professors from German-speaking countries. Established in 2011 to mark the International Year of Chemistry, this honorary lecture aims to introduce current research findings in modern analytical chemistry and the fascination of the discipline as a whole to a broad chemistry audience in Germany. Currently, the Division Board nominates two individuals every two years, who are then invited to speak at the colloquia of the GDCh local sections for a period of two academic years.
All local GDCh local sections are cordially requested to consider the current Fresenius Lecturers for their lecture programs – announcements should be made under the heading "Fresenius Lectureship of the GDCh Division of Analytical Chemistry". Scheduling of the lectures will be arranged directly between the Fresenius Lecturers and the inviting universities. The Division of Analytical Chemistry will cover the lecturers' travel and accommodation expenses.
