Pittcon 2018

This dynamic event offers a robust program with more than 130 technical presentations covering topics in drug discovery and pharmaceutical science.

Presenters will include leading researchers from industry labs such as AstraZeneca, Bristol-Myers-Squibb, Eli Lilly, GlaxoSmithKline and Pfizer. to name a few.

The following is a sample of the symposia that will be offered:

• Precompetitive Collaboration on Enabling Technologies for Pharmaceutical Research and Development
• Automation in the Pharmaceutical Research and Development Laboratory
• MS Based High-Throughput Screening for Drug Discovery
• Recent Advances in Two-Dimensional Liquid Chromatography Separations
• Next Generation Separations Technology and Chemistry
• Label-Free Methods for High-Throughput Screening

One of the highlights of this year’s technical program is the Wallace H. Coulter Lecture, “Analytical Science in Precision Medicine: Facing the Challenges of the 21st Century Healthcare” which will be presented by Professor Jeremy Nicholson, Head of the Department of Surgery and Cancer and Director of the MRC-NIHR National Phenome Centre Faculty of Medicine

A Plenary Lecture, “Optical Microscopy: The Resolution Revolution,” presented by Dr. Stefan Hell, Director at the Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry in Göttingen and Director at the Max Planck Institute for Medical Research in Heidelberg, will be added to this year’s program.

Attending Pittcon affords a once-a-year chance to get a first-hand look at products, services, chemicals and ancillary items used the research, development and testing of pharmaceutical products. Evaluate and compare equipment used in pharmaceuticals such as high throughput screening systems, incubators, centrifuges, freeze dryers, spectrophotometers, biomolecule analysis instruments, chillers, measuring instruments, and heating/cooling systems autoclaves and much more.
