Symposium: From reaction dynamics to peptide sequencing

该奖项促进了一个为期一天的研讨会，“从反应动力学到肽测序”，将于2007年8月19日至23日在马萨诸塞州波士顿举行的美国化学学会2007年秋季全国会议上举行。本次多学科研讨会将重点讨论质谱技术在化学、生物学、原位分析和纳米材料等领域的创新应用。重要的是，它还将作为讨论下一代中等规模分析仪器的框架。研讨会将汇集一些世界上最好的质谱专家，他们的互动讨论有望促进该领域的创新思维。此外，该奖项还将帮助6名女性和/或少数族裔研究生参加研讨会并与与会科学家互动。

This award facilitates a one-day symposium, 'From Reaction Dynamics to Peptide Sequencing,' that will be held at the Fall 2007 National Meeting of the American Chemical Society in Boston, MA, August 19-23, 2007. This multidisciplinary symposium will focus on innovative applications of mass spectrometry to 'grand challenge' problems in chemistry, biology, in situ analysis, and nanomaterials. Importantly, it will also serve as a framework for discussion of the next generation of mid-scale analytical instrumentation. The symposium will bring together some of the world's best mass spectrometrists whose interactive discussions are expected to catalyze innovative thinking in the field. In addition, this award assists six female and/or minority graduate students to attend the symposium and interact with the presenting scientists.
