Advanced Crystallisation: Solubility, Particle Engineering, and Process Development

  • Workshop
  • 1 July 2026, Manchester, UK - in conjunction with BACG Annual Conference

Save the date!

Technobis is pleased to announce that this year we will be hosting a dedicated workshop focused on advancing scientific and technical knowledge in the field of crystallisation research.

Time & location

Wednesday 1st July (from 13:00 to 16:30) at the University of Manchester, directly following the BACG annual conference.

About

The workshop will bring together leading experts from across the pharmaceutical sector, contract research organisations and academia to share insights, discuss current challenges, and explore emerging approaches in crystallisation science.

Designed as a non‑commercial, knowledge‑driven forum, the workshop will feature a series of presentations, case studies, and technical discussions. While the event will not be commercially orientated, attendees will have the opportunity to learn about the crystallisation instruments and technologies that we supply, demonstrated in a scientific context.

We look forward to welcoming you to what promises to be an insightful and collaborative event!

Why attend?

  • Learn about real-world crystallisation case studies from renowned industry and academic experts
  • Take part in interactive scientific and technical discussions
  • Connect with peers working in crystallisation, formulation, and process development over a relaxed coffee & cake break, with a few extras along the way
