Dear Colleagues,
Our STARSS project, “Establishment of Specialized Team for Advanced Research on Separation Science,” is approaching its end. The five years have quickly gone, and we are now in the last year of investigation. The annual STARSS conference, compiled of presentations of internationally recognized scientists in separation science, has become an essential tool to support the project goals. The topics cover chromatographic and electro-driven separations, sample preparation, hyphenation of separations with mass spectrometry, and multi-dimensional separations. And the applications focus on innovations in pharmaceutical, bioanalytical, natural product analysis, omics sciences, environmental, and food analysis.
Therefore, it is our greatest pleasure to invite you to the
6th STARSS Conference on Separation Science
Program
The scientific program will be compiled of presentations by excellent speakers:
Prof. Ruth Andrew, University of Edinburgh, Scotland
