Inn Mass Spec 2013: Innovations in Mass Spectrometry Instrumentation

It is great pleasure for us to invite you to participate in the Conference on Innovations in Mass Spectrometry Instrumentation which will be held in St. Petersburg on July 14–18, 2013.

It will be a meeting for researchers of ion sources, ion transport systems, mass analyzers, ion detectors, signal analysis, computer simulations, whole instrument design, large scale instruments, supplementary technologies (separations, vacuum etc) and applications.

This conference will be designed and scheduled to be as flat and democratic as possible.

• No tutorials
• No key-note lectures
• No plenary presentations
• All participants can present orals or and, if wished, posters.

All orals will be 20-30 minutes long (exact time will be determined later) and will be followed by 5 minutes panel discussion. Program will be divided into thematic sections. In case of large numbers of participants parallel sessions will be scheduled.

In the evening or lunch time, corporate events (user meetings, seminars, and corporate workshops) can be arranged.

Round table discussions or thematic workshops can be initiated.

We warmly welcome academic scientists, mass spectrometry companies, government experts, experts in education and innovations, students, and people interesting in applications of MS and new MS based technologies in biochemistry, chemistry, pharmacy, biotechnologies and environmental science.
