The conference is the science-oriented component of analytica USA in Columbus, Ohio.
Speakers 2025
analytica USA scientific conference
Sept. 10–11, 2025
As a multidisciplinary program highlight, the two-day USA conference promotes direct exchange between science and industry. The speakers are renowned scientists and recognized specialists. They will report on current topics in analytics, quality control, diagnostics, measurement and testing technology as well as biotechnology and the life sciences.
The versatile lectures give you an overview of novel methods, procedures, techniques and their concrete application possibilities. The personal exchange between speakers and audience is also very important at the analytica conference: Come together with established researchers, the young generation of scientists, equipment suppliers and users to think together about the future.
You can look forward to a multidisciplinary, future- and practice-oriented program!
Presentations and open discussions about One Health, Ion mobility mass spectrometry and new developments and future perspectives
The conference opens on September 10 with three plenary lectures. John McLean (Vanderbilt University) will discuss the promise of high dimensional phenomics. Susan Olesik (Ohio State University) will present on enhanced fluidity LC-MS analysis of proteins, oligosaccharides and oligonucleotides. This will be followed by Christian Mayer (University of Duisburg-Essen), who will speak about the development of a peptide-vesicle system into possible protocells
These talks lead into the One Health session, featuring Albert Sickmann (ISAS) on proteomics and cardiovascular diseases, Amanda Hummon (Ohio State University) on imaging mass spectrometry of liposomes and Gertrud Morlock on sustainable, fast access to critical analytical-toxicological data. The day concludes with a poster session.
Day two begins with a plenary session by Sebastian Eeltink (VUB) presenting his work on a comprehensive spatial three-dimensional liquid-phase separation technology and Ralf Zimmermann (University of Rostock) on effect-based analysis of PM2.5 in air pollution and health. Kelly Hines (University of Georgia) will introduce the next session on ion mobility—mass spectrometry for rapid multi-omics.
The Ion mobility session includes Daniel DeBord (Mobilion) on leveraging high resolution ion mobility for efficient separations of complex proteomic mixtures, Ahmed Hamid (Auburn University) on differentiation of microorganisms at the strain level using high resolution ion mobility mass spectrometry, and Oliver Schmitz (University of Duisburg-Essen) on coupling LCxLC with ion mobility MS.
The final afternoon session focuses on new developments and future perspectives with Dwight Stoll (Gustavus Adolphus College) on advances in 2D-LC method development and tools. James Grinias (Rowan University) will present on greener and faster separation with capillary LC, followed by Martin Gilar (Waters) on RNA analysis with LC and affinity-LC and Robert Kennedy (University of Michigan) droplet microfluidics as an enabling technology for chemistry and biology. Robert (Chip) Cody (JEOL) will close the session on snapshots to separation: from ambient ionisation mass spectrometry to GCxGC-HRMS with a giant searchable database.
Poster session
The analytica USA scientific conference will conclude with a poster session on the first day, where renowned researchers will present the latest developments in analytical and separation sciences.
Technical innovations in mass spectrometry (MS) are revolutionising detection and separation performance in many fields of application. Microfluidics and fast analysis platforms for high-throughput screening, as well as ultrahigh-resolution ion mobility separation, are opening up new perspectives in bioanalysis, drug discovery, and medical research.
Learn more about the separation of small and large biomolecules. Explore the limits of chiral ion mobility in drug enantiomer separations using HRIM-MS.
The high-throughput characterization of peptide active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) and biomarkers are discussed as well as MS Imaging in 3D cell cultures.
One pot to one cell - discover an automated, high throughput proteomics workflow for small immune cells, single cell technologies and peptide evolution and why these developments make a significant contribution to the understanding of diseases.
Find out more, too, about multi-2D LC × LC and the comprehensive analysis of European herbal remedies.
Moreover you will learn about the latest analytical methods and how you can detect and identify contaminants and impurities in food, pharma and environment.
