Waters Seminars on Ion Mobility-Mass Spectrometry in Life Sciences

Baltimore, MD: Wednesday, March 17

Presented by Dr. Robert Cotter, Professor of Pharmacology and Molecular Sciences
Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine
8:30 AM to 9:00 AM Registration
9:00 AM to 3:30 PM Symposium

Greenbelt, MD: Thursday, March 18
Presented by Dr. Catherine Fenselau, Professor, Chemistry and Biochemistry
University of Maryland, College of Chemical & Life Sciences
9:30 AM to 10:00 AM Registration
10:00 AM to 4:30 PM Symposium

Please join the University of Maryland and the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine for a free Symposium on the latest capabilities in ion mobility-mass spectrometry and bioinformatics. Bob and Catherine are pleased to host leading researchers who will present their findings using ion mobility and mass spectrometry:

    · Alison Ashcroft (University of Leeds) Using ion mobility spectrometry-mass spectrometry (IMS-MS) to unravel biomolecular assembly pathways
    · Helen Cooper (University of Birmingham) Ion-electron fragmentation and ion mobility: A novel toolbox for the structural analysis of phosphopeptides
    · Dave Russell (Texas A&M University) Developing IM-MS as a Driver for a Structural Biology Center
    · David Clemmer (University of Indiana) Developing Ion Mobility techniques for Characterizing Biomolecular Structure and Analysis of Complex Mixtures

This event is intended for:

    · Those wishing to learn about new tools and strategies in ion mobility
    · Existing practitioners seeking an update on the latest bioinformatics technologies

Attendance to this event is available at no cost. We invite you to secure your place, as seating is limited, and register today on the Waters’ website at http://www.waters.com/waters/eventList.htm?cid=514352&filter=regioncode|AM&locale=en_US, selecting the venue of your choice. Details including directions parking, and hotel accommodations, if required, will be available on the website for registration.

The deadline for registration is Monday, March 8, 2010.
