MSDG Meeting November 6, 2003

Thursday, @ 12:30pm at the Star of India restaurant in Oakland

Attendees:  Mark Bier, Amit Ghosh, Joe Grabowski, Manny Schreiber, Kasi Somayajula,  and Brian Walsh (chair)

Manny is testing out some new Finnigan instrumentation and is looking for a good book on practical applications of electrospray. Any recommendations would be welcome.

Kasi is working on a Bioinformatics one day course possibly for January 15 or 22.  He is contacting Dr. Andrews at Michigan.

We discussed having half-day or dinner meeting on Forensics applications of mass spec,  possibly including developments in ion mobility. Joe, Kasi and Mark had some ideas for speakers and will follow up possibly with a meeting in February.

I would still like to have another session, full or 1/2 day, on inorganic mass spec applications in May.

At the end of the meeting Joe suggested on planning a session on Proteomics for a Fall 04 meeting.

Please send any corrections, or additional information to the undersigned.


Yours truly,
Brian
