analytica USA will take place for the first time in September 10–12, 2025. Here’s a taster of what to look forward to at this inaugural event.
Columbus is the capital and most populous city of the U.S. state of Ohio. It has been recognized as a top-tier city in the U.S., having been named to Condé Nast Traveler’s 2024 Readers’ Choice Awards in the categories of Best Big City, Best Food City, and Friendliest City. A novel attraction is now underway: the inaugural iteration of analytica USA, scheduled to transpire from September 10–12, 2025, in Columbus, Ohio. The original exhibition, analytica Munich, has been held in Germany every two years since 1968. It has maintained its position as the world’s leading trade fair for laboratory technology, instrumental analysis, and biotechnology for the past five decades. analytica has historically served as a reliable venue for the exhibition of pioneering laboratory technology and innovative biotechnology. As the most significant industry assembly, it unites the comprehensive array of laboratory subjects within the industrial and research domains. At the most recent edition of analytica in Munich in 2024, the exhibition was visited by over 33,000 participants, with a total of 1066 exhibitors from 42 countries.

analytica is not exclusively held in Munich, Germany; it is also hosted biannually in Shanghai, China; Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam; and Johannesburg, South Africa. Moreover, it is held annually in Mumbai and Hyderabad, India. Each exhibition is accompanied by an extensive conference program.
The long-awaited arrival of analytica in the United States is imminent. This event is of particular significance as it marks the first occasion that the exhibition will be hosting more than 200 exhibitors and 4000 visitors. To complement the exhibition, a scientific conference will also be offered.
On September 10 and 11, world-renowned experts will give presentations and open discussions about One Health, Ion Mobility Mass Spectrometry, and New Developments and Future Perspectives. In addition, there will also be a poster session with free beer, where you can talk in a relaxed atmosphere about science. The best three posters will be selected by a committee and awarded with one of three prizes of 1200, 800, and 500 dollars. The conference is being organized by Oliver J. Schmitz and for poster contributions please contact oliver.schmitz@uni-due.de until July 15.
The first plenary session on September 10 will start with a lecture by John McLean (Vanderbilt University, USA) on Mapping Your Life and Everything Else - The Promise of High Dimensional Phenomics. This will be followed by two further plenary lectures by Susan Olesik (Ohio State University, USA) and Nikos Kyrpides (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, USA) on Enhanced Fluidity LC–MS Analysis of Proteins, Oligosaccharides, and Oligonucleotides and Microbiome Date Science: Unraveling Microbial, Viral and Functional Diversity, respectively. These plenary lectures provide an ideal introduction to the following One Health Session in which Albert Sickmann (ISAS, Germany) will talk about proteomics and cardiovascular diseases and Amanda Hummon (Ohio State University, USA) about imaging MS analysis of liposomes. This first day will be concluded by a poster session with the aforementioned free beer.
The second plenary session will follow on September 11 at 9:00 a.m., in which Sebastiaan Eeltink (VUB Belgium) will present his work on a comprehensive spatial three-dimensional liquid-phase separation technology. Ralf Zimmermann (University of Rostock, Germany) will then report on effect-based analysis of PM2.5 in the field of air pollution and health. Kelly Hines from the University of Georgia (USA) will then introduce the next session, ion mobility mass spectrometry, with her presentation on rapid multi-omics analysis.
After this introduction the session will be started by Daniel DeBoard (Mobilion, USA) with a presentation on Waste Not, Want Not: Leveraging High Resolution Ion Mobility for Efficient Separations of Complex Proteomic Mixtures. This will be followed by Ahmed Hamid (Auburn University, USA) on the differentiation of microorganisms at the strain level using high-resolution ion mobility mass spectrometry. Finally, Oliver J. Schmitz (University of Duisburg-Essen, Germany) will give a lecture on the coupling of comprehensive two-dimensional liquid chromatography (LC×LC) with ion mobility mass spectrometry.
In the final afternoon session, new developments and future perspectives will be presented by renowned scientists from the USA. This will start with Dwight Stoll’s (Gustavus Adolphus College, USA) latest work on comprehensive two-dimensional LC. James Grinias (Rowan University, USA) will talk about greener and faster separation with capillary LC. Martin Gilar from Waters (USA) will then report on RNA analysis with LC and affinity-LC. Robert Kennedy from the University of Michigan (USA) will present droplet microfluidics as an enabling technology for chemistry and biology. And last, but not least, Robert (Chip) Cody from Joel, USA, will give a lecture entitled Snapshots to Separation: From Ambient Ionization Mass Spectrometry to GC×GC–HRMS with a Giant Searchable Database.
The organizers would like to cordially invite you to visit analytica USA and the accompanying conference and look forward to stimulating discussions with our speakers.
