Scientific conference
The conference serves as the science-oriented component of analytica USA. This structural element is a key feature of all analytica events.
analytica USA scientific conference
Nov. 2 - 3, 2027
The two-day USA conference, a highlight of the multidisciplinary program, promotes direct exchange between science and industry. The speakers are renowned scientists and recognized specialists. They will present on the latest topics in analytics, quality control, diagnostics, measurement and testing technology, and biotechnology and life sciences.
The versatile lectures provide an overview of novel methods, procedures, and techniques, as well as their concrete application possibilities. Personal interaction between speakers and audience members is also very important at the analytica conference. Join established researchers, young scientists, equipment suppliers, and users to discuss the future.
Stay tuned. Full details on speakers, sessions, and more coming soon!

2025 Recap: Presentations and open discussions about One Health, Ion mobility mass spectrometry and new developments and future perspectives
The conference opened on September 10, 2025 with three plenary lectures. John McLean (Vanderbilt University) discussed the promise of high dimensional phenomics. Susan Olesik (Ohio State University) presented on enhanced fluidity LC-MS analysis of proteins, oligosaccharides and oligonucleotides. This was followed by Christian Mayer (University of Duisburg-Essen), who spoke about the development of a peptide-vesicle system into possible protocells
These talks led 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 concluded with a poster session.
Day two began 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) introduced the next session on ion mobility—mass spectrometry for rapid multi-omics.
The Ion mobility session included 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 focused 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) presented 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) closed the session on snapshots to separation: from ambient ionisation mass spectrometry to GCxGC-HRMS with a giant searchable database.
2025 Recap: Poster session
The first day of the analytica USA 2025 scientific conference concluded with a poster session, where renowned researchers presented 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.
Visitors had the opportunity to learn about the separation of small and large biomolecules as well as 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 were discussed as well as MS Imaging in 3D cell cultures.
One pot to one cell - attendees could also discover an automated, high throughput proteomics workflow for small immune cells, single cell technologies and peptide evolution and learn why these developments make a significant contribution to the understanding of diseases.
Visitors could also find out about multi-2D LC × LC and the comprehensive analysis of European herbal remedies.
Moreover, visitors could learn about the latest analytical methods and how they could detect and identify contaminants and impurities in food, pharma and environment.
