The Forum is run by the Forum Syndicate under the auspices of a sub-committee of the Chromatographic Society and draws on members from academia and industry.

The presentations, stretched over three days covering a number of topical subjects including the new Metabolites in Safety Testing (MIST) guidelines, dried blood spot analysis, large molecule analysis, incurred sample reproducibility (ISR) and an update on current thinking on the subject of bioanalytical method validation from the FDA. Interspersed amongst these were also a number of scientific vendor presentations. There were two social networking events organised on the Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. On Tuesday, the evening meal and welcome drinks were served at Denbies vineyard, England’s largest vineyard situated in Dorking, Surrey. On Wednesday evening the conference banquet and pre-dinner drinks were served in the University Season restaurant on campus.
