12th seminar for doctoral students – dialog consistent with the WG-PAT philosophy

This year’s doctoral seminar was again held in keeping with the philosophy of AK-PAT (Working Group of the Division Analytical Chemistry within the GDCh), which maintains close ties to DECHEMA’s Process, Apparatus and Plant Engineering group. Exchange between the different participants from teaching, industry and manufacturers, especially vertically, i.e. exchange between experienced professionals and academic beginners. The unifying topic was a core topic of spectroscopy: “Multivariate Data Analysis”.
