Welcome to the Royal Society of Chemistry Analytical Biosciences Group Early Career Researcher Meeting (ECRM2017) at the University of Warwick. We hope you will engage in discussions and debate through considering applications of the current and future analytical technologies. Plenary speakers will begin each session with an exciting founding perspective and vision of a technique, which will be followed by peer-reviewed papers to provide the current research and analytical applications.

We hope delegates will obtain a broad overview of the current state of the art for analytical techniques, with detailed examples of their applications. It is intended to highlight and demonstrate the breadth and depth of these techniques to encourage their translation into new areas. With this aim in mind, each contribution will aim to demonstrate the quality and value of each methodology.
