Waters Symposium: Electrochemistry
From the Science Fair to the NASDAQ

Abstract
Electroanalytical chemistry has been a primary activity in Ph.D.-granting institutions since the 1940s. It has proved to be an excellent tool for research, enabling students to think in time and space and grasp thermodynamics, kinetics, and instrumentation principles as applied to accessible measurements. This personal perspective is an informal review of this dynamic field from the late 1950s to the present. During this period, the capability of instrumentation advanced by six orders of magnitude in many respects. The author began his career in 1960 with a high school science fair project on electrochemistry. This evolved into undergraduate, doctoral, and postdoctoral research, leading to a career in academia and industry.
