The annual Analytical Research Forum (ARF) is the premier Analytical Science meeting of the RSC. The meeting is primarily for early-stage analytical science researchers (industrial scientists, PhD students and postdoctoral fellows) to present their latest results in the context of the wider analytical science community.
The programme featured both poster sessions and lectures, including oral presentations from students, medal winners and international leaders in the field.

Networking
One of the valuable benefits of attending ARF was the opportunity to network with contemporary researchers who cover a wide range of analytical techniques and experience. Networking took place through interactive poster sessions and a lively social programme.Bursaries
Generously supported by the Analytical Chemistry Trust Fund (ACTF) of the Analytical Division, the forum is traditionally able to offer a number of discretionary travel bursaries to students.Scientific Committee
