Welcome to Electrochem 2025
Electrochem 2025 is part of the long-running Electrochem conference series that takes place at a different location within the UK or Ireland in August/September every year. The conference is organised jointly by the Royal Society of Chemistry's Electrochemistry and Electroanalytical Sensing Systems interest Groups, and the Society of Chemical Industry's Electrochemical Technology group.
Electrochem 2025 will feature a series of high-profile
plenary lectures and award ceremonies. The event is also dedicated to fostering
student involvement through talks, poster sessions, and opportunities to
interact with world-leading experts in the field. Student rates are heavily
subsidized, and both the RSC and SCI offer generous bursaries and presentation
awards to maximize student participation.
