The 2010 Eastern Analytical Symposium Program
Shirley Fischer-Drowos
2010 Program Chair
With the advent of a new decade, the EAS 2010 technical program has focused on expanding analytical horizons. We have endeavored to develop a program that represents the growth of analysis across industries. Covering topical areas such as immunogenicity, genotoxicity, microfluidics, dried blood spot analysis, in-process control, hand-held analyses, tandem mass spectrometry, two-dimensional gas chromatography, art conservation, forensic analysis, counterfeit drug and product detection, novel approaches to analytical chemistry education, and managing outsourcing; we have strived to assemble a wide-ranging program that will be relevant to you.
Novel and traditional areas will be included in the invited and contributed oral sessions, complemented by the contributed poster presentations. Essential elements of analysis, such as method development, sampling, acquisition, and problem-solving; as well as core techniques including spectroscopy, chromatography, and surface methods, will be covered in sessions encompassing a wide array of applications. Continuing education opportunities will again be offered in the form of short courses and workshops.
As a result, EAS provides you with a number of opportunities to network and expand your horizons. The EAS website, www.eas.org, will have specific information regarding submissions, deadlines, and other important updates. We look forward to offering you another informative and enriching EAS experience. I invite you to join us in November at our sessions, courses, workshops, and exhibits. Your participation will contribute to the success of our program.
