Engage, Stay Connected, Build Connections, Generate Business

The 37th MSB will take place virtually on July 12-15, 2021. Expert scientists are working to create an exciting forum where researchers from around the world will introduce, promote and discuss the latest innovative and sometimes controversial, but mostly unpublished, scientific research results related to all areas of microscale separations and bioanalysis. Microscale separations enable high-throughput and/or high-performance analyses at reduced costs and with a lower sample and solvents consumption, being therefore highly competitive analytical approaches in today's research, including fundamental research, drug discovery and development, clinical and forensic toxicology, food analysis, and -omics approaches.

e-MSB 2021 has partnered with Virtual Creative Studios to provide an immersive conference experience that mimics the collegial atmosphere of in-person MSB meetings. The program will deliver strong scientific content with opportunities for engagement and building connections. The program will be packed with four full days of invited and contributed talks, general and parallel sessions with heavy focus on live Q&A by world renowned experts who will share their latest innovative and sometimes controversial, but mostly unpublished, scientific research results, workshops/seminars, exhibition, and a strong poster program where each presenter will upload a pdf of their presentation to their virtual board and will have an opportunity to upload a 5-min pre-recorded video about the work presented in the poster, which will be broadcasted in the session of lightning talks that will be available for on-demand viewing for the duration of the conference.

The program will include sponsored video highlights, poster pitch presentations, pre-recorded lightning talks, young scientist and best poster competitions, and awards to recognize outstanding contributions to science and innovative break-through research. Awards: MSB Young Scientist Award, SCIEX Microscale Separations Innovation Medal Award for current and breakthrough research in the field of Electrodriven Separations, Thermo Fisher Scientific Early Career Award for breakthrough researching advancing the field of Microscale Separations and Bioanalysis, and Best Poster Awards with prizes.

Participants will have opportunities to hear exciting talks, explore ground-breaking technologies, view new product launches, receive practical information that improves productivity, and discuss challenges and solutions with colleagues. In addition, we have convened an Industrial Advisory Committee (IAC) comprising a diverse panel of scientists and leaders from Novartis, Moderna, LifeMine, Kymera, Vertex, Gritstone, Adeptrix, and Wave Life Sciences. Members of the IAC are actively recruiting abstract submissions through their professional networks and will chair and moderate a dedicated session, “Celebrating the Greater Boston and Massachusetts Life Science Industry” to highlight the great research of our industrial science colleagues.
