The 58th Pittsburgh Conference on Analytical Chemistry and Applied Spectroscopy is the world's largest, most comprehensive Conference and Exposition for laboratory science.
To complement the Exposition, Employment Bureau, and Short Course
offerings, the Technical Program is packed with a week's worth of Invited Symposia, Workshops, Organized Contributed Sessions,
New Product Forums, and Contributed Oral and Poster sessions to provide
the world's most comprehensive coverage of the latest developments in
the traditional and emerging disciplines of analytical chemistry and
applied spectroscopy.
New this
year, the American Chemical Society Division of Analytical Chemistry
will be co-programming with The Pittsburgh Conference. This will
involve several invited symposia and contributed sessions as well as
some poster sessions. The Pittsburgh Conference is excited to be able
to work more closely with the ACS Analytical Division.
The program is both broad in scope and well balanced. Major focus
areas of the program include bioanalytical chemistry, pharmaceutical
chemistry, nanotechnology, environmental chemistry, forensic analysis,
life science technologies, food analysis, applied molecular
spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and chemical separations.
In addition, a number of prestigious
awards will be presented at Pittcon 2007 including the Pittcon Heritage
Award, the Pittsburgh Analytical Chemistry Award, the Pittsburgh
Spectroscopy Award, the Pittsburgh Conference Achievement Award, the
Ralph N. Adams Award in Bioanalytical Chemistry, the ACS Analytical
Chemistry Award for Young Investigators in Separation Science, the
Charles N. Reilley Award, the Young Investigator Award, the Dal Nogare
Award, the Williams-Wright Award, the Tomas P. Hirschfeld Award, and
the Bomem-Michelson Award.
