Laboratory Science Conference Scheduled for March 2023

Pittsburgh, PA – October, 2022 – After a two-year hiatus due to the effects of the recent global pandemic, Pittcon – the largest international laboratory science conference and exposition – will return as an in-person event March 18-22, 2023, in Philadelphia, PA, USA.

“We are beyond elated to welcome the world of laboratory science back to Pittcon,” said Jonell Kerkhoff, Pittcon President. “Moreover, this is our first live and in-person Pittcon in two years and we are returning to Philadelphia, a city that has historically provided us with a great deal of attendee and exhibitor engagement.”

Pittcon is organized into two distinct elements – the Conference, which provides attendees with over 1,000 technical and networking sessions, and the Exposition, which hosts nearly 500 exhibiting companies from throughout the world. Focusing on laboratory science and analytical chemistry, Pittcon has been for nearly 75 years the premier, largest conference and exposition on the subject.

“Our goal is to promote an environment of connectivity and collaboration,” states Kerkhoff. “Many who attend Pittcon meet with scientists from completely different fields, they collaborate on research, they discover novel approaches to laboratory problems, or they simply engage in conversation that leads to vast research and career opportunity. Pittcon is also where many are introduced to the latest advances in scientific instrumentation and where they may ask questions directly to the technical experts who have often times developed that instrumentation. Inspiration awaits at Pittcon.”

Registration for Pittcon opens November 1, 2022, with a 30% discount for full-Conference/Exposition attendee admission available until February 4, 2023, and free admission for credentialed members of the press. More details may be found at pittcon.org/register.
