Conference and event highlights: April to June
As spring draws near and with WRIB fast approaching, the team at Bioanalysis Zone have turned our attention to the events, conferences, workshops and meetings coming up in the next few months. Scroll through our highlights below, and don’t forget to check out our full, comprehensive list on the Bioanalysis Zone events pages.
Also, to help us cover as many bioanalytical events as possible, if you are attending a conference or event and would be interested in writing a conference report please contact Georgi Makin ([email protected]) for more information.
APRIL
9–13 April: WRIB
The 12th Workshop on recent issues in bioanalysis: a week of bioanalysis, biomarkers and immunogenicity.
Built on the event’s previous success, the 12th WRIB will take place on April 9-13, 2018 in downtown Philadelphia (PA, USA), and will continue to be a forum where regulators and industry convene for working together in the field of bioanalysis, biomarkers, and immunogenicity to improve global health.
The Bioanalysis Zone and Bioanalysis journal team will also be attending! If you are also attending, make sure you make time to visit us at booth 5, and see what treats we have in store for you this year… Alternatively, email Naamah Maundrell ([email protected]) to put something in our diaries. We cannot wait to see you there!
