Welcome to Boston
As a hub of scientific innovation, Boston provides the perfect venue for Pittcon 2025. Famed for its academic centers, like Harvard University, Massachusetts General Hospital, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Boston is also a nexus of technological enterprise. Boston is one of the world’s leading biotechnology centers, home to pharmaceutical companies like Moderna, which created one of the first COVID-19 vaccines, and Vertex, one of the few biotech companies with a market capitalization of over $100 billion. Kendall Square in Cambridge is home to over 400 startups and was also the birthplace of biotechnology in Boston, where companies like Biogen and Amgen are now based.
Pittcon will take place in the up-and-coming Seaport District, one of the fastest-growing neighborhoods in Boston that is home to state-of-the-art spaces for biotechnology firms as well as the most technologically advanced convention facility in the world – the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center, where Pittcon 2025 will be staged.
The Wallace H. Coulter Lecture
The prestigious Wallace H. Coulter Lecture will be presented this year by Cato T. Laurencin, a pioneer in the field of regenerative engineering and Professor at the University of Connecticut Biomedical Engineering Department. Dr. Laurencin has made significant contributions to advances in musculoskeletal regeneration and soft tissue repair through an approach that combines tissue engineering with material science, stem cell science, and developmental biology. He will discuss this emerging field in his lecture "Regenerative Engineering: The Frontier is Here."
Short Courses
Pittcon's Short Courses offer you the opportunity to further your professional development in a diverse range of areas from within the conference tracks, including biomedical engineering, environmental analysis, mass spectrometry, regulatory compliance, and statistics. For example, you can learn about sampling and sample preparation for chromatography with Doug Raynie from South Dakota State University or undertake a crash course in cannabis testing with Jini Glaros from Modern Canna Labs. Or, you could develop your career skills with a course on open-source data analytics techniques with Phil Callahan from CSols Inc. The learning opportunities don't end when the conference is over; from April to December each year, you can participate in online courses offered by Pittcon.
The Pittcon Expo
A highlight at every Pittcon is the exposition. It provides the opportunity for you to discover the latest innovations in instrumentation, see new technology up close, and find the solutions you need for your laboratory. You can meet exhibitors to explore options in a whole range of specialties, including laboratory equipment and automation, electroanalytical techniques & applications, nanotechnology techniques & applications, clinical diagnostics, and food analysis. Companies including Bruker, Shimadzu, PerkinElmer, MilliporeSigma, TA Instruments, and Metrohm are already confirmed for Pittcon 2025.

About Pittcon
Pittcon is the world’s largest annual premier conference and exposition on laboratory science. Pittcon attracts more than 10,000 attendees from industry, academia and government from over 90 countries worldwide.
Their mission is to sponsor and sustain educational and charitable activities for the advancement and benefit of scientific endeavor.
Pittcon’s target audience is not just “analytical chemists,” but all laboratory scientists — anyone who identifies, quantifies, analyzes or tests the chemical or biological properties of compounds or molecules, or who manages these laboratory scientists.
Having grown beyond its roots in analytical chemistry and spectroscopy, Pittcon has evolved into an event that now also serves a diverse constituency encompassing life sciences, pharmaceutical discovery and QA, food safety, environmental, bioterrorism and cannabis/psychedelics.
