2024 MPD MiniTec: Medical Plastics – Innovations for Life
February 5 @ 8:00 am - February 6 @ 5:00 pm
SPE’s Medical Plastics MiniTec will be held Monday February 5th and Tuesday February 6th, a day prior to and concurrent with the first day of the 2024 MD&M West Expo & Conference in the Anaheim Convention Center.
Innovations in medical plastics and associated applications are rapidly advancing in exciting ways. Concurrently, the medical device and healthcare industries face several new and evolving challenges related to materials, regulatory requirements, product design, and materials characterization and validation in order to ensure better outcomes for patients while being mindful of plastic wastes in the environment and focusing efforts on sustainability. Join us for a two-day program with experts in the medical plastics industries that explore these topics and more.
Topics include:
Innovations in Resins, Surface Modifications, and Processing
Silicones Bringing New Benefits & the Use of Surface Modifications
Global Impact of PFAS on Medical Polymers & Devices
Progress Updates in Sustainability of Medical Polymers
New Product Designs Highlighting & Enabled by Medical Polymers
Characterization & Validation of Medical Devices
Drug Delivery & Novel Processing of Medical Polymers
Poster Sessions:
In addition to this technical program from the podium, this MiniTec will feature a poster session with additional presentations unable to be squeezed into the live program. These posters will be on display in the conference room and Mezzanine level hallway between the escalators and the conference rooms. The posters will be displayed throughout the conference program for three days! Make sure you take time to view this work!
A special keynote speaker, Dr. Maureen Reitman, will present after lunch on the first day of the program.
These live technical presentations combined with an enjoyable Membership Reception allowing us to continue our discussion and view the poster offerings. Join us for this must-attend event! We look forward to seeing you and your colleagues there! Don’t miss it!
