化学与药物结构分析 CPSA Chemical and Pharmaceutical Structure Analysis  
 1998年Mike S. Lee联合制药产业界分析化学家在美国新泽西州创办，创立之初主要集中在生物分析和化学分析领域，至今已十四年。CPSA汇集制药业意见领袖们的观点，目标是促进科学交流进步，并构建热点话题、产业需求及趋势的基准。CPSA创造了这样一个平台：对于科学，CPSA让技术与解决方案交融;在文化上，CPSA让西方与东方相遇，促进观点碰撞和交流;CPSA还创造氛围来构建参与者之间的友谊。同时，CPSA关注教育和专业化的培训，促进年轻人的发展。

　　2010年，CPSA在中国上海开办第一届会议，今年是第三届。上海CPSA与美国CPSA的宗旨一样，包括：(1)用和美国CPSA同样的关注点、内容和精神来链接西方和东方;(2)用正在涌现的新趋势和工业基准，将技术和解决方案链接起来;(3)促进教育和专业化的培训。上海CPSA更关注于亚洲地区的制药业，参加会议的主要是中国和亚洲国家。Jenny女士表示，相较成熟的美国CPSA会议，亚洲的制药业正在迅速成长，年轻的科学家们渴望获得更多的知识和经验，所以上海CPSA特别注重为年轻科学家们提供教育和交流的平台，缩短中国和国际间的教育差距和实验差距。“这是上海CPSA一个很大的特色。”
  

CPSA Background and History
This annual meeting began in 1998 and was the first industry-led event to complement academic-based meetings and address the specific needs of industry researchers. The program highlights current industry trends and relevant topics. The broad-based support has allowed the meeting to evolve into a premier industry-led event that is dedicated to promoting awareness of issues and needs associated with research and development.

Over the past 13 years, the CPSA event has attracted sponsors, thought leaders, and participants who are dedicated to the spirit of cooperation to achieve common goals. The event is dedicated to promoting the analytical sciences in an interactive and educational environment.

Meeting Format
The meeting features a unique format to allow scientists to openly share their comprehensive perspectives on industry-related issues and needs. First-hand experiences with specific applications and technologies are openly discussed.

The CPSA Shanghai symposia and roundtables are highly interactive events where scientists share their experiences and visions in a collegial setting. The program will highlight speakers and sessions that provide real-world experiences with new technologies and critical insights into current issues and future needs. Education and specialized training are the foundation of all CPSA events.

Each session at CPSA Shanghai will address the current industrial landscape and the global need to bring products to market faster. The program chairs will promote discussion and exchange of experiences, ideas, and visions so that current processes that involve analytical measurement can be benchmarked and future strategies may be developed.
