ISIMS — Short Course on Ion Mobility Spectrometry

The Short Course on Ion Mobility Spectrometry (IMS) is held in conjunction with the 28th International Conference on Ion Mobility Spectrometry, and is suitable for individuals with varying levels of IMS experience including those who are new to the IMS field. All efforts will be made to accommodate the interests of the attendees with topics ranging from IMS fundamentals to a wide array of applications. In addition to the practical perspectives provided during the course, a unique aspect of the experience is the inclusion of the popular hands-on exercises with IMS equipment. Students will have the opportunity to perform actual IMS experiments, followed by a discussion of results and methods of interpretation. Finally, the IMS short course will also include a Master Class session on a special topic. Our past Master Class topics include gating, ionization sources, modelling, breath analysis and travelling wave IMS.
