Joint Pharmaceutical Analysis Group
JPAG has over 1,500 members worldwide and is jointly sponsored by the Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain and the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC). Its remit is "to encourage, assist and extend the knowledge and study of pharmaceutical analysis and quality control by the holding of scientific meetings, the promotion of lectures, practical demonstrations and discussions".
The Group is very active and organises up to eight meetings a year addressing all aspects of pharmaceutical analysis and many related facets of medicine control and registration. One meeting every year is allotted for Short Papers, with prizes awarded for the best presentations by less experienced analysts. Some meetings are also held in collaboration with other RSC interest groups and, since 1998, minisymposia and Short Papers sessions have been included within the annual British Pharmaceutical Conference.
