PREP2011

24th International Symposium, Exhibit and Workshops on Preparative & Process Chromatography (July 10-13, 2011 in Boston, MA, USA)

MESSAGE FROM THE PROGRAM CHAIR

Giorgio Carta, University of Virginia

On behalf of the Organizing Committee, I invite you to attend PREP 2011 where speakers from around the world will gather to present the latest advances in preparative and process chromatography. This is a unique opportunity to interact with speakers who will provide a global perspective on advances and opportunities, and who will share information on how to solve practical problems, and with vendors and suppliers that will display the latest products and technologies available on the market.

In addition to plenary sessions, the program will include innovative technical sessions addressing emerging areas important to discovery, development and production including microprep LC, supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC), monoclonal antibodies and large biomolecule purification, continuous processing, and monoliths. The program will also feature Industrial Case Studies sessions bringing examples of not only solutions but also challenges and opportunities in the application of chromatography to industrial production processes as well as to preclinical development.

Call for Papers

The Symposium will provide opportunities to present and discuss the latest scientific and technological advances in the field, an exposure to the most recent chromatography products and technologies on the market, and training and continuing education leading to the ability to optimize processes and minimize costs in the production of fine chemicals, chiral molecules, active pharmaceutical ingredients, peptides, proteins, monoclonal antibodies, plasmids, vaccines, VLP’s, and other biopharmaceuticals. To submit abstracts for oral or poster presentation, please see details posted at PREPsymposium.org. The abstract deadline is February 1, 2011.
