The 69th Pittcon returns to the Orange County Convention Center, Orlando, Florida from 26 February to 1 March, and provides a golden opportunity to experience the latest cutting-edge technology and to find solutions to all your laboratory challenges.
Pittcon is the world’s largest annual conference and exposition for laboratory science and is expected to attract over 15,000 attendees from industry, academia and government from 90 countries worldwide. Pittcon 2018 will offer the latest technology and instrumentation from more than 800 exhibitors, a diverse Technical Program of over 2,000 abstracts to technical presentations, over 100 Short Courses to enhance your educational experience, and networking sessions that provide the chance to exchange innovative ideas with scientists from around the world.
The 2018 topic of the 29th annual Waters symposium is ‘Ambient Ionization Mass Spectrometry for Imaging and Analysis’. This prestigious discussion will recognise the history, science, and applications of the technologies associated with ambient ionisation mass spectrometry for imaging and analysis. This presentation will trace its original developments in the Purdue University laboratories of Professor R. Graham Cooks to the initial commercialisation by Prosolia, Inc to the most recent applications in a wide array of fields from nanotechnology to homeland security to medical operating rooms.
The outstanding panel of speakers who will be presenting at the Pittcon 2018 Waters Symposium includes: Graham Cooks, Purdue University; Dr Justin Wiseman, Prosolia, Inc; Pieter Dorrestein, University of California; Thalappil Pradeep, IIT Madras; Richard N. Zare, Stanford University.
