| Conference Overview |

|
|
Successful lab automation is key to the success of drug discovery, DNA screening programmes, product development and quality control.
This conference aims to introduce the many new and exciting developments in European academia and to address the constantly changing needs of industry. The speaker programme features leading academics in laboratory automation and will be of interest to academics and industrialists alike. Presentations will provide practical insights and detailed case studies by scientists for scientists.
Delegates will learn about different approaches to automation which will prove invaluable particularly those planning new automation projects or struggling to get the performance that they require. Time will be set aside for plenty of networking activity. Accompanying the programme of presentations will be a poster session and exhibition featuring the leading suppliers of automation equipment. |
