MAY 2008
The Chromatographic Society Spring 2008 Meeting and AGM Reading, UK
The meeting, being held 21–22 May, will review the latest developments in stationary phase technologies for liquid chromatography.
It will also include lectures on emerging stationary phase chemistries, specialised functional phases and small particle size
packings
The event will be of interest to all practitioners of separation science, but in particular those using liquid chromatography
for problem solving and method development.
Day One highlights include Session One titled Current state-of–the art and the future, Keynote Lecture One: Overview of current technology and future with Dr Ron Majors (Agilent); Keynote Lecture Two: Pillar arrays with Dr Gert Desmet (Brussels Free University); Lecture One: Column classification? with Prof. Mel Euerby (Hichrom) and Lecture Two: Molecular mechanism of HPLC retention and column classification in view of QSRR with Prof. Roman Kaliszan (University of Gdansk, Poland).
Day Two highlights include Session Three titled Industrial perspectives, Lecture Three: Real benefits of sub 2 micron particles with Dr Roman Szucs (Pfizer); Lecture Four: Ultra-fast gradients with Ian Mutton (GSK); Lecture Five: Stationary phase selectivity in preparative chiral SFC with Dr Mary Luz de la Puente (Lilly); Session Four titled Novel supports and stationary phases, Lecture Six: Alternative stationary phase supports with Prof. Peter Myers (University of Liverpool); Lecture Seven: Thermally responsive polymers with Dr Frederic Lynen (University of Ghent); Lecture Eight: Molecularly Imprinted Polymers with Dr Richard Ansell (Leeds University) and Lecture Nine: Monoliths for small molecule separations with Dr Zhengjin Jiang (Novartis).

April 2008
Analytica 2008, Munich, Germany
From 1–4 April 2008, Munich will once again be the stage for Analytica 2008 — a leading trade fair offering marketable solutions
in analytics, laboratory technology, biotechnology and the life sciences.
Since 1968 Analytica has been held every two years and has become an established international meeting point for leaders in
the laboratory industry. It is also recognised for being a communication and business event for the international community,
offering the presentation of innovative products and services and of the reproduction of entire value-added chains in industrial
and research laboratory applications.
Analytica 2008, which will be held at Fairground, Munich, will feature international events to help build business relationships
on a global scale. These will include the Analytica Forum, which is a platform for the exchange of information and transfer
of knowledge, and the European international research community summit.
