Wie in den letzten Jahren wird hier auch in diesem Jahr eine europaweite Plattform zum Austausch über Virologie, insbesondere zu den Themen Immunology of Virus Infections, Neurovirology und Viral Zoonoses geboten.

Generalthema: Kalorimetrie und Energiewirtschaft Die Kalorimetrie als Schlüssel für zuverlässige Energiebilanzen

This training course provides theory lectures and practical sessions for modern analysis ofmacromolecules using gel permeation chromatography (GPC), also known as size exclusionchromatography (SEC). It covers the theoretical background of the separation technique, gives practicaladvice for reproducible and accurate analysis, and shows the application advantages as well as thelimitations of GPC/SEC and GPC/SEC hyphenation with light scattering, viscometry and othertechniques. In the praxis sessions small workgroups (maximum 5 people) verify a GPC/SEC system,check the performance of the separation column, calibrate, and evaluate samples using differenttechniques. Each group has its own tutor, an experienced polymer chemist, to discuss also specialapplications and questions.
After successful participation each attendee should be able to obtain results from analysis data, toqualify the condition of the analytical system and the separation columns, and to optimize the applicationconditions and the work flow in the lab.

Der Kurs vermittelt theoretische Kenntnisse und praktische Fähigkeiten für moderne Polymeranalytik mittels Gelpermeationschromatographie (GPC) und GPC-Kopplungsmethoden (Viskosimetrie, Lichtstreuung, FTIR). Die Theorie, sowie die Möglichkeiten und Grenzen dieser Methoden werden einführend in Seminarvorträgen behandelt. In Arbeitsgruppen mit maximal 5 Personen pro GPC-Anlage werden praktische Übungen unter Anleitung von erfahrenen Polymerchemikern durchgeführt. Dabei werden die Gruppen nach organischen und wässrigen Applikationen unterteilt. Für die Beantwortung von individuellen Fragestellungen bleibt genügend Zeit.
Der Teilnehmer soll am Ende des Kurses in der Lage sein, Analysendaten in Ergebnisse umzusetzen sowie den Zustand der chromatographischen Anlage und die Qualität der Ergebnisse zu beurteilen.

The 8th Annual Pharma Supply Chain Event

LogiPharma Europe is a premier pharmaceutical supply chain and logistics event covering a comprehensive range of supply chain topics including supply chain optimization, transportation and cold chain management, packaging technology, supplier-partner relationship management and product launch management.
LogiPharma also aims to bring together all the members of the pharmaceutical supply chain from manufacturing companies to wholesalers and distributors to boards of pharmacies, government institutions, hospitals (doctors/pharmacists), and drug chain pharmacists.

In 2008, over 150 senior supply chain professionals came together at LogiPharma Europe to discuss the issues affecting them, including optimization, track & trace, IT, cool chain, distribution, risk and resilience and DTP. With leading keynotes from top speakers from the pharmaceutical industry, every presentation provided valuable business information and crucial insight into the market.
Again in 2009, LogiPharma Europe will bring together senior-level speakers and unique case studies and will tackle the top issues for the forthcoming year.
