ensuring knowledge, enhancing quality
A 'not-for-profit' organisation, run for pharmaceutical analysts by pharmaceutical analysts
MEETINGS

Thursday 30th September 2027
Foundations: Pharmaceutical Trace Analysis
Royal Society of Chemistry, London

JPAG is seeking speakers for the next event in our successful Foundations symposium series, aimed at analysts and scientists looking to build their understanding of core pharmaceutical analytical concepts.

The 2027 symposium will focus on trace analysis in pharmaceutical development, providing attendees with a practical introduction to why trace-level analysis is required, the regulatory expectations that drive testing, and the analytical approaches used to detect and control low-level impurities and contaminants.

We are looking for engaging speakers from industry, regulatory agencies, contract laboratories, instrument manufacturers, and academia who can provide accessible, educational presentations suitable for an early-career or non-specialist audience.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Extractables and leachables (E&L)
Nitrosamines
Potential mutagenic impurities
Elemental impurities
Residual solvents
Risk assessment and control strategies
Regulatory expectations and evolving guidance
Analytical techniques for trace analysis, including LC-MS, GC-MS, ICP-MS and high-resolution mass spectrometry
Practical challenges in generating reliable trace-level data
Case studies demonstrating the role of trace analysis in pharmaceutical development and quality control

Presentations should focus on conveying fundamental principles, practical insights, and real-world experience rather than highly specialised research.

If you are interested in contributing, please submit a brief outline of your proposed presentation along with a short biography to team@jpag.org.

Join us in helping the next generation of pharmaceutical analysts build a strong foundation in one of the most important and rapidly evolving areas of pharmaceutical analysis.

TESTIMONIALS...

Very enjoyable and thought-provoking day; going away with plenty of notes and specific items for discussion.

Excellent meeting, challenging and thought provoking. The organisation was excellent, thanks to all the efforts that JPAG team have made.

I have not attended a bad JPAG meeting yet. They are really good value for money and I really love to get the presentations as PDFs


I did appreciate receiving the slides before, as then I could print them and make notes around them during the symposium.

Getting an industry perspective on this topic was most helpful.

Fantastic to hear from NHS speaker, provides real insight to patient/clinician considerations that we don't necessarily see in industry.

Hearing the information from the clinical setting side was very useful.

Well organized. This was an amazing session. Prior sharing of the presentation was a great add on!

The most useful aspect of the webinar was the variety in the presentations across industry and the regulators. Really good to review the presentations beforehand.

Good value, well organised symposium. Always useful for focused topics.

A very good day. Enjoyed getting to speak to the presenters to discuss current challenges in industry.





JPAG plans and delivers events that address all aspects of pharmaceutical analysis and related facets of medicine control & registration.
