AIMS AND SCOPE
The aim of the 16th CSSC is to bring together experts from universities, academia, official centres, various laboratories and industry, to summarize the current progress in different areas of spectroscopy and the trends in the applications such as chemical, environmental, geological, biological, food, pharmaceutical and industrial materials and to stimulate contacts and mutual exchange of experiences and ideas.

HISTORY AND TRADITION
The 16th Czech - Slovak Spectroscopic Conference (16th CSSC) is a scientific congress based on a long-term cooperation between Ioannes Marcus Marci Spectroscopic Society and Slovak Spectroscopic Society. Meetings organized by the former Czechoslovak Spectroscopic Society (1949 – 1993) in the past and the continuation in the tradition of national Slovak and Czech spectroscopic conferences now, since 2008 exist as a joint events.
