The Delaware Valley is composed of several counties in Delaware, New Jersey, Maryland, and Pennsylvania, and contains a population of 6.35 million (as of the 2006 Census Bureau estimate). However, if the populations of all Delaware Valley counties is tallied, (see below), then the actual population of the Delaware Valley is 6,724,547, including the newly included, as of 2005, adjacent Berks County. Philadelphia, being the region's major commercial, cultural, and industrial center, maintains a rather large sphere of influence that affects those counties that immediately surround it. The majority of the region's populace reside in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.

The Chromatography Forum of Delaware Valley was founded in 1965, with the purpose of educating, informing and bringing together scientists interested in separation methods. The Forum meets each month from September through June at locations in the greater Philadelphia area. These technical dinner meetings bring members and knowledgeable speakers together in an informal setting to discuss current topics in chromatography. The meetings ... include open problem-solving forums and poster sessions and provide an opportunity to meet and share experiences with colleagues from other organizations in the area. In addition to the monthly meetings, the Forum sponsors short courses and organizes symposia and workshops at technical meetings and conferences.
