BMSS Virtual EFASIG meetings

Welcome to the event page for the BMSS Virtual EFASIG series of international seminars 2021.

This series of virtual seminars has been paused. We hope to arrange a physical meeting later this year when COVID-19 restrictions are lifted. 

CALL FOR ABSTRACTS

The BMSS EFASIG is dynamically responding to the COVID-19 situation. Following the cancellation of our previously scheduled event at Leicester in July 2020 we are implementing a series of virtual events.

These meetings, supported by BMSS, provide a space for Early Career Researchers to share their work with our community. We may periodically also invite established researchers to deliver keynote presentations or provide tutorials/training and plan to include interactive discussion elements to each session.

BMSS EFASIG events will typically last for 60-90 minutes, and feature two or three presentations of approximately 15 minutes, plus Q&A.

We are now inviting abstract submissions around themed topics covering analysis in different matrix types, e.g. water, air, soil and food in line with our original meeting scope of environment, health and exposure.

ALL EVENTS ARE ENABLED WITH ZOOM

We warmly invite all BMSS members and the international mass spectrometry community at large to join our Virtual EFASIG Events.
