The Pittsburgh Conference released the Call for Papers and the Call for Topics (Conferee Networking Sessions) for Pittcon 2009, the 60th annual Pittcon Conference and Exposition which will be held March 8—13, 2009, McCormick Place South, Chicago, Illinois.

Call for Papers
The Program Committee solicits abstracts of original, previously unpublished findings in all aspects of instrumental analysis including but not limited to chromatography, molecular and atomic spectroscopy, electrochemistry, mass spectrometry and lab-on-a-chip technology. The Committee also seeks abstracts addressing novel applications of measurement science in areas such as nanotechnology, biomedicine, neurochemistry, genomics, forensics, informatics and quality assurance as well as pharmaceutical, environmental, polymer and food science.

For full consideration, abstracts must be received by August 15, 2008. Abstracts may only be submitted electronically via the Technical Program link at www.pittcon.org.

Call for Topics
The Pittsburgh Conference is requesting topics for its expanding Conferee Networking Sessions. The submission deadline is July 18, 2008, and all topics may be submitted online.
