Symposium to be held in Navi Mumbai on December 18 and 19, 2014
Chromatographic Society of India (CSI) has announced a two-day symposium on “The Application of Chromatography and Spectroscopy Techniques in Pharma and Food Analysis” in Navi Mumbai on December 18-19, 2014 in collaboration with SIES Institute of Chromatography and Spectroscopy.
The idea of holding the two day symposium was conceived by the CSI, mainly to bring out the significance of the various analytical techniques, that are used in the above two important industries, throughout the entire value chain of the products. The symposium will cover the important instrumental methods of analysis in both the industries. Various contemporary subjects have been identified for this symposium and the expert speakers have been selected to cover these topics. Dr Pat Sandra, one of the most respected scientists in analytical chemistry worldwide, has agreed to be at this symposium and will deliver four major talks. Dr AV Rama Rao, a scientist turned industrialist, will be the keynote speaker at the symposium.
CSI has in the past recognised the significant contribution of a few outstanding individuals in the area of chemistry education, research and application of analytical instrumentation in their field of work and industrial development. The stars of this “CSI Hall of Fame“ to receive the” Lifetime Contribution Award” are (Late) Dr SC Bhattacharyya, Dr Sukh Dev, Dr RT Sane, Dr RM Iyer and Dr. S. M. Khopkar. Two more names have been added to the list. They are Dr Pat J Sandra and Dr AV Rama Rao, who will be felicitated during the ensuing symposium.
On this occasion, CSI will be bringing out a Technical Souvenir publication. The authors of the chosen articles for printing will receive a certificate of appreciation and an honorarium from CSI.
