Free “Sunrise Tutorials” will be held on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings from 8:00 to 8:50 am, with two parallel talks each morning. The tutorial track is part of the educational mission of HPLC 2022. Experts are asked to give presentations on a topic with more background than might be found in a typical 20-minute talk. The goal is to make the topic more accessible to those less expert in the area. In some cases, discussion and other interactive activities may be used. (Open to all conferees, first-come seating).

This parallel session, entitled “Biopharmaceuticals: Forward Looking,” is co-chaired by Peter Yehl of Genentech, Inc. and Samuel Foster of Rowan University in Glassboro, New Jersey, USA. It will be held from 3:45 to 6:00 pm in the Palm Rooms 1-2-3.

Today from 3:45 to 6:00 pm, there will be a parallel session titled “Pharmaceutical Analysis,” which will include four talks from experts in the field. This session will be presided over by Todd Maloney of Eli Lilly and Company and Alexandre Goyon of Genentech, Inc.

Today from 9:00 to 10:30 am, there will be a parallel session titled “Microscale Separations,” which will include four talks from experts in the field. This session will be presided over by Takuya Kubo of Kyoto University and Sebastian Piendl of the University of Leipzig.
