Our courses are inspired from the industrial opportunities offered by
chemometrics methods. With a non-mathematical approach, our participants
can quickly and safely start using the methods in their own work to
optimize, classify or predict products and processes.
In 2004, CAMO courses will take place in Oslo - Norway, Woodbridge - USA,
Germany, Paris - France and Utrecht - Holland.
Course concept :
Our courses are addressed to all scientists or engineers who collect and
analyze data e.g. within R&D, instrument data, experimentation or
process, or anyone confronted to situations where the understanding of
multivariable relationships is central.
The course leader will explain the methods and show relevant examples
utilizing either The Unscrambler® or The Unscrambler® Designer software
packages.
The participants will run practical exercises on the latest version of
The Unscrambler® or The Unscrambler® Designer for Windows.
Prior knowledge of CAMO's software is not required to attend our courses.
The courses are held in English, German, French, Dutch or Norwegian.
The participants have the possibility to run the exercises on their own
laptop computers.
|
COURSE MODULES
Our courses are organized around two main application areas and are
based on CAMO's experience in chemometrics since the early 80's.

"INTRODUCTION TO MULTIVARIATE
STATISTICS WITH CHEMOMETRICS & SPECTROSCOPIC APPLICATIONS"
(3-day course) |
| |
Dates Offered: October 25, 26, & 27
Location: Camo Smart Education Facility - Woodbridge,
NJ
Chemometrics is an important tool for the application
of many technologies including Near IR spectroscopy. Near
IR spectroscopy has become an important tool for quality
control, at line and on line analysis in a variety of industries.
This three day class is a hands-on course that will teach
participants how to use chemometrics to solve practical
problems. The course will assume no previous statistical
or chemometrics experience but will accommodate advanced
topics for seasoned practitioners as well.
The Instructors:
Dr. Frederick H. Long has been doing
analytical spectroscopy professionally for over fifteen
years. He established Spectroscopic Solutions in the summer
of 2001. Spectroscopic Solutions provides consulting and
training in the areas of process analytical technology,
spectroscopy, and statistics for regulated and non regulated
industries. His firm has done work for numerous international
pharmaceutical, consumer health-care companies, and scientific
instrumentation suppliers.
Dr. Long has published over forty peer-reviewed publications
in all many areas of spectroscopy including Raman and NIR
spectroscopy, ultra-fast and non-linear phenomena, and
the optics of human tissue. He received his S.B. and S.M.
in Physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology
and a Ph.D. in Chemical Physics from Columbia University.
This could also be added to our Scientific Board of Advisors
Section as well as Fred has joined that.
Dr. Dongsheng Bu is a Chemometrician,
Spectroscopy expert and Statistician. He has more than
10 years experience in spectroscopic applications, chemometrics
and statistical analysis. He received his BS in Chemical
Physics from East China University of Chemical Technology.

Although they complete each other, the Multivariate Analysis course and
the Experimental Design course are independent from each other, and can
be followed one after the other in no preferred order.
All participants to Multivariate Analysis courses who are not yet
registered licensees will receive a free 30-day test installation of
latest version of The Unscrambler® to be able to apply the methods right
away in their own work.
In addition, all participants will be offered to purchase The Introducer
(incl. Prof. Kim Esbensen's book Multivariate Data Analysis in Practice)
at a discounted price.
