Pittcon is “where innovation goes to play” and there are certainly plenty of innovators among this year’s array of speakers. In addition to the diverse selection of cutting-edge technology, plenary lectures, and exhibitions, there will be live product demos on the expo floor – something new for you Pittcon veterans – as well as over 100 short courses. And with plenty of networking sessions you’ll be able to catch up with long-lost colleagues – as well as meet members of The Analytical Scientist team; we’ll be at booth 2362. If you can’t make it, we’ll be live tweeting from
@tAnaSci. If you are going, here are our top picks. JC

A former library manager and storyteller, I have wanted to write for magazines since I was six years old, when I used to make my own out of foolscap paper and sellotape and distribute them to my family. Since getting my MSc in Publishing, I’ve worked as a freelance writer and content creator for both digital and print, writing on subjects such as fashion, food, tourism, photography – and the history of Roman toilets.
