Short Courses
Suited for students, faculty, industry and technology providers, the short course program provides a rapid introduction to topics, issues and techniques related to the laboratory automation industry. Each course is a full day and led by faculty with expertise in their respective course topic.
Simon Coles from Amphora Research and John Trigg from phaseFour Informatics will present their course, “Electronic Laboratory Notebooks,” Saturday, January 27.
Topics to be discussed include what an ELN is, its benefits, business case issues, user requirements and technology issues. Last, the course will outline a strategic approach to successful implementation. continue
Opening Keynote Address
Norman Dovichi, Ph.D., an endowed professor with the University of Washington’s Chemistry Department, will discuss capillary electrophoresis analysis of biopsies to improve prognostic accuracy at 8:30 a.m., Monday morning.
Dovichi's research program focuses on ultra-sensitive chemical analysis based on capillary electrophoresis and laser-induced fluorescence. This technology is now being applied to characterize the composition of single eukaryote cells. continue
