It's exciting to see The Royal Society of Chemistry's winter 2021 edition of Analytical Matters highlighting the launch of WASC at Warwick.

The article details the EPSRC four year grant and how the funding will be used to facilitate enhanced access to experimental Analytical Science Instrumentation (AS-I) at Warwick, with a particular focus towards supporting postgraduate training, expanding multi-disciplinary collaboration and investing in the development of research technical professionals (RTProfs).

As part of the funding, there will be 480 days of seedcorn use for the AS-I facilities to regional PhD students and nationally, to those studying analytical science, the intent of which is to foster new collaborations and new research opportunities. Upon successful application, users will be able to carry out short analytical investigations of up to two days, cost-free, whilst also benefiting from the expertise of Warwick's RTProfs.
