Applying the Fundamentals of Recognition and Amplification to Current Challenges

Sensors hold the possibility to provide physicochemical information on myriad substances and systems. From the attoscale, where atoms and molecules reside, through the scale of humans and our immediate environment, through the largest scales of the planet and beyond, sensors play important, enabling roles. Sensors have been engineered to achieve remarkable limits of analytical performance, including high spatial and temporal resolution, and the ability to respond to vanishingly small amounts of material or samples on the macroscale, as required. This meeting of the Bioanalytical Sensors GRC will connect members of this dynamic research community at a time of particularly exciting innovation in our field, when sensor technology is responsive to major health and environmental challenges. From fundamental concepts through complex applications, the meeting will feature a broad and deep collection of expert and innovative perspectives.
