Performing Inter-Laboratory Comparisons: why and how?
Description
Inter-Laboratory Comparisons (ILC) involve conducting tests or calibrations on the same sample by different laboratories under pre-established conditions. There are different types of ILCs with varying objectives. Proficiency tests, for example, aim to assess the performance of participating laboratories. Other ILCs evaluate the performance of a measurement method implemented by all participants.
This conference cycle will test your knowledge of ILCs and provide an overview of the operation and utilization of proficiency tests.

Modernizing the lab - From SMEs to large corporations: unified data, automation and sovereign AI
Speakers:
Description
This conference demonstrates how to modernize the laboratory in three key steps: consolidating data, automating processes, and integrating AI in an operational and sovereign manner. Through concrete examples tailored to both SMEs and large corporations, we explain how to transition from a fragmented environment to a connected digital laboratory that is more efficient, reliable, and innovative, and capable of fully leveraging its scientific data.

A solution for developing or optimizing your GC and LC methods: ProEZGC - ProEZLC modeling tools
Description
This workshop will provide feedback on the use of chromatographic modeling as an aid for method development and transfer in gas chromatography. Based on concrete analytical situations, the choices made during changes in carrier gas, column dimensions, or detection configurations will be discussed, as well as their impacts on separation and analysis times.
The workshop will also cover pre-analysis work, particularly the choice of stationary phases and the adjustment of key chromatographic parameters (injection conditions, temperature programs, flow rates), with a focus on optimizing resolution in constrained analytical contexts.
A similar approach in liquid chromatography will be illustrated through examples in LC-MS/MS, notably for the analysis of PFAS, nitrosamines, cannabinoids, and other psychoactive substances. These cases will highlight how modeling tools can support analytical decision-making, regardless of the available instrumentation.

Artificial intelligence in bioproduction: from self-adaptive sampling to gene network analysis. Application to GMP insulin production
Description
Pharmaceutical bioproduction suffers from high rejection rates, revealing the limitations of traditional empirical approaches. Artificial intelligence opens up transformative perspectives along two complementary axes.
- The first concerns intelligent monitoring. GenSensor's GenSampler performs aseptic robotic sampling whose frequency adapts in near real-time to the culture's state. Analysis of cellular flow during sampling instantly provides density and morphology, and allows access to biological information hidden by the stress of conventional sampling.
- The second axis leverages deep learning to decipher gene regulatory networks. Transcriptomic analysis identifies metabolic bottlenecks and gene modules associated with performance, transforming empirical understanding into actionable knowledge.
Applied to commercial-scale insulin production, this convergence embodies Quality by Design: robustness through anticipation of deviations, rational optimization of critical parameters, and documentation meeting regulatory requirements. The real-time adaptability of monitoring, coupled with systemic intelligence, defines a new paradigm for bioprocess control.

European cosmetics at a turning point: revision of cosmetic regulations and new solar framework
Description
European cosmetics at a turning point: revision of cosmetic regulations and new solar framework
Two major developments aimed at providing a clearer, safer, and more consistent framework will transform cosmetic regulations in Europe.
The first concerns the revision of the Cosmetic Products Regulation (CPR): more than 15 years after its adoption, the EU is re-examining the entire text. Discussions are already underway through the European Commission's simplification project.
These discussions focus on sensitive topics: CMR substances, nanomaterials, SCCS governance... The objective is to modernize without complicating, to support innovation while ensuring a high level of safety, and to continue to inspire international regulatory frameworks. The second major undertaking: the revision of the 2006 Solar Recommendation. The EU aims to create an enforceable legal framework, integrate secondary sunscreens, and questions are also being raised about the level of anti-UVA protection as well as SPF categories. Come and discover the progress of the work, the options under discussion, and their potential impacts for the industry. Essential insights to anticipate the future!

Build and Maintain Your Professional Network
Description
At every stage of your career and whatever your goal—whether launching a new project or advancing internally or externally—networking is an essential tool for expanding opportunities and approaching them with professionalism and relevance. Networking has its own rules and codes that must be mastered to act consistently and ensure the effectiveness of your efforts.

Monocyte Activation Test: automation of a regulatory method
Description
Industrial feedback on the application of the Monocyte Activation Test (MAT – Ph. Eur. 2.6.30, method 2) for the evaluation of pyrogenicity in bacterial vaccines.
Following method optimization, an automation approach for key steps (dilutions, pipetting, immunodetection) was implemented to reduce variability and improve reproducibility.
The performance obtained was compared to that of manual MAT on several products, illustrating the benefits of automation in a real industrial context.

Description
Enhancing training and education at the University
At a time when science is more than ever at the heart of major societal challenges, how does the University train those who will shape the world of tomorrow? And how can we better promote the richness, impact, and utility of scientific training to students, partners, and the general public?
This round table offers an open and inspiring time for exchange around the role of scientific ambassadors: teachers, researchers, students, and institutions, all actors in the transmission of knowledge.
With the shared perspectives of Bruno Lina, Nathalie Milliard-Pinard and Gilles Escarguel, the discussion will cover:
• the evolution of scientific training,
• new pedagogical approaches,
• the place of ecological transitions in teaching,
• and the key role of the university with & for society.
A meeting to better understand the transformations of the University, value pedagogical commitment, and reflect together on a more visible, accessible, and responsible science.
A round table not to be missed for all those interested in the future of scientific training and the link between science and society.
