What is MUACC?
The Midwestern Universities Analytical Chemistry Conference (MUACC) is a gathering of analytical chemists organized on a yearly basis on a
traveling location in this broad area of the USA. The midwest is home of major developments in analytical chemistry, and heir to a tradition of using this conference as an
instrument of modernization. Attracting scientists at all levels - including faculty from small and large research and undergraduate universities, postdoctoral and
graduate students - MUACC helps shaping the future of analytical chemistry by discussing the current state of the art, identifying new research trends, and exposing
new generations of scientists to a broad scientific legacy, all in an informal setting.

MUACC - Our Secret Weapon by George H. Morrison Anal. Chem. 1985, 57, 1"For the most part, MUACC remains true to its traditions, in spite of its size and the diversity of its attendees. The talks are informal, deal with research in progress, and generate considerable discussion... I was particularly impressed by the strong participation of young academics from many smaller institutions..." MUACC - A 50 year heritage that continues to grow Talanta 1997, 44, 725"MUACC, an informal gathering of top chemistry faculty from throughout the Midwest, has clearly made its mark, changing lives, careers, teaching methods and research outcomes since 1947..."
