On 3 June, Malvern Panalytical’s UK Pharmaceutical Conference returns to Birmingham for its fourth year, bringing together pharmaceutical scientists focused on small molecule development, solid-state chemistry, formulation, and analytical science.

📅 Wednesday 3 June 2026
📍 Edgbaston Park Hotel & Conference Centre, Birmingham, UK

If your work involves understanding materials, controlling solid forms, or reducing development risk, this is a great opportunity to engage directly with experts and peers facing the same challenges.

With attendance limited to around 50 delegates, this is a focused, high-value event built for meaningful discussion, practical insight, and direct access to experts. Places are limited, so early registration is strongly recommended.

Why you should join us

Small molecule development continues to demand more from scientific teams: shorter timelines, tighter control, better data, and greater confidence at every stage.

Scientists today are under pressure to:

  • accelerate development without increasing risk
  • control solid forms and polymorphism more effectively
  • avoid scale-up issues that can disrupt progress
  • generate analytical insight that supports better decisions earlier

Our agenda is designed to help you navigate these challenges.

Across the day, you will hear practical case studies, expert perspectives, and application-focused talks that address the challenges development teams are dealing with right now. We won’t be talking theory, but real science, real workflows, and real strategies that support better outcomes.

See analytical technologies in action

Live demonstrations from Malvern Panalytical and Micromeritics will show how powerful analytical data can support decision-making across development and quality workflows.

Small format, big impact

Large events can be busy, broad, and easy to get lost in. With around 50 attendees, you will have more opportunities to ask questions, join discussions, and speak directly with specialists, speakers, and peers facing similar challenges. The smaller format creates space for deeper conversations and stronger connections.

This year, the event will also include poster presentations, opening up even more opportunities to exchange ideas, showcase work, and start valuable conversations with an engaged audience.

Meet the speakers

We’re proud to welcome a strong lineup of speakers, including:

  • Dr Jonathan Loughrey, Director of Chemical Development, Almac Group
  • Dr Yvonne Perrie (MBE), Professor in Drug Delivery, University of Strathclyde
  • Dr Steve Ward-Smith, Senior Technical Specialist, Malvern Panalytical
  • Dr Natalia Dadivanyan, Market Development Manager – Small Molecule Pharmaceuticals, Malvern Panalytical

More speakers and the full agenda will be announced soon.
