In this episode, podcast co-hosts Dr. Dwight Stoll and Dr. James Grinias discuss highlights and observations from the recently completed HPLC2024 that was held in Denver, Colorado in July. The “HPLC Meeting”, as the conference is affectionately known by regular attendees, is widely regarded as the premier venue to discuss the latest advances in liquid chromatography research and applications, and is well attended by influencers in the community from both academic and industrial research laboratories. This year’s meeting was no exception, with fantastic talks and posters presented by scientists from around the world.
In the conversation, we discuss some of the major themes and trends we observed at the meeting, including the proliferation of research around therapeutic oligonucleotides, and the increasing emphasis on the “green-ness” of analytical science in general, and liquid phase separations in particular. We also highlight the recipients of several awards presented at the meeting, and the value of attending the meeting, especially for students and other young scientists. Upcoming instances of the HPLC Meeting will be held in Dalian, China (2024), Bruges, Belgium (2025), and Indianapolis in the U.S. (2026).
