ACS-DAC co-programs with Pittcon for second year

The Pittsburgh Conference announces the continuation of its partnership with the ACS Division of Analytical Chemistry at Pittcon 2008, 1-7 March 2008, in New Orleans

Based on the success of last year's venture, the ACS-DAC is expanding its co-programming in the Pittcon technical programme by offering eight invited symposia, six organised contributed sessions, and one poster session at Pittcon 2008.

When asked about the benefits of the partnership, 2008 programme chair Jane Chan commented: "Co-programming with the ACS-Division of Analytical Chemistry (DAC) is a win-win situation for attendees of both meetings.

"It allows the Pittcon attendees to have access to an expanded technical programme provided by the rich resources of ACS-DAC, and the ACS-DAC attendees to experience the world's largest exposition of analytical instrumentation at Pittcon".

The ACS symposium, 'The environmental impact of Hurricane Katrina on New Orleans and the surrounding area', will be of special interest to members of the scientific community.

Leroy Hood will deliver this year's plenary lecture.

'Systems biology and systems medicine', as a participant of the symposium titled 'Interdisciplinary analytical chemistry'.
