24/7/2014 About 40 researcher came to the MPI to present or discuss posters within the Bremen Mass spec seminar series special event. This event was great success on scientific side and also on the weather side.

Posters outside during a nice summer afternoon was a great experience and should be continued next year!

Metabolites

Bremen Mass Spectrometry Seminar is an open seminar with monthly invited talks on mass spectrometry covering both technology and applications. The aim of the Seminar is to establish a discussion and networking platform in the Bremen area and to strengthen reputation of Bremen as the capital of mass spectrometry.

I will give a talk on the 20. November "From structure to function - locating metabolites with high resolution mass spectral imaging approaches."
