JPAG Pharmaceutical Analysis Research and Career Fair 2026
Royal Society of Chemistry, London
Based on the great success of the past years, JPAG presents this year's Pharmaceutical Analysis Symposium for postgraduate, undergraduate and early career scientists.
This event will provide the opportunity for you to listen to and hear the latest research being carried out by your peers. Early career scientists (undergraduate, postgraduate, industrial) conducting research in various areas of pharmaceutical science will showcase their work through oral and poster presentations with prizes for best posters and best podium presentations (including the prestigious Geoffrey Phillips Award).
The deadline for abstract submissions has been extended to Sunday 20th September 2026.

Advanced Dissolution
Royal Society of Chemistry, London
This event brings together scientists, analysts, and industry colleagues for a focused, one day exploration of advanced dissolution and its growing role in modern pharmaceutical development. It is a follow on from the Fundamentals event held in October 2025. As formulations become more complex and regulatory expectations evolve, dissolution has shifted from a simple quality test to a powerful, mechanistic tool for understanding drug performance.
This seminar creates space for sharing experiences, practical insight alongside open discussions. During the day, we aim to highlight new approaches, identify emerging challenges, and discuss the analytical strategies that will shape the next generation of oral medicines. The challenge for us all is: can a single test be sensitive enough to predict changes that may be of clinical relevance, whilst being robust enough to satisfy the needs of a quality control environment?
We're open for abstracts for both oral presentations and posters - deadline: 31-Oct-26 (oral) and 1-Jan-27 (posters).

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.
