Frontiers in Native Mass Spectrometry and Single-Molecule Imaging

Program   

Combining precise chemical information from mass spectrometry (MS) with high-resolution imaging methods like electron microscopy (cryoEM, TEM) or scanning probe microscopy (AFM, STM) pushes the frontiers and scope of chemical and structural analysis to atomic resolution of individual complex molecules.  

This workshop meeting brings together an emerging community of scientists from analytical, preparative, and native mass spectrometry, molecular electron microscopy and scanning probe microscopy to explore the possibilities and challenges of the novel approaches at the frontier of native mass spectrometry and single-molecule imaging.

The conference handle, MS+M_22, stands for Mass Spectrometry plus Microscopy, expressing the vision that this sum is greater than its parts.

 

PROGRAM SCHEDULE. 

 

CONFERENCE BOOKLET/INFORMATION

 

Session Topics:

 

Each oral session will be led by one or two keynote talks (30 mins) outlining the achievements and challenges of the topic, accompanied by several invited and contributed lectures.

 

Single-Particle Cryo-EM: Expanding the scope 

   - Novel imaging, processing, and reconstruction approaches

   - Challenges of sample preparation and new approaches

 

 

 

Structural Mass Spectrometry: native MS, ion mobility, and cross linking

   - Gas phase structure vs. solution structure

   - Computational approaches

 

 

Scanning Probe Microscopy: Imaging of individual molecules

   - Atomic resolution imaging of surface adsorbed biological molecules

   - Interrogating molecular properties with SPM

 

 

Emerging methods: imaging, sample preparation, and data analysis

   - Preparative Mass Spectrometry: a novel preparative tool for molecular imaging 

   - Tomography, Ptychography, Holography (in EM or with low energy electrons)

   - Coherent diffraction methods at accelerator light sources (XFEL).

Fees and bursaries:

 

We aim for a self-sustainable fee with the support of our sponsors.  The fee will include the conference, accommodation, conference dinner, and excursion.  There will be support for students.  Fees will be waived for invited speakers, for who also a travel support is offered.

Venue/Travel   

Founded in 1610, Wadham College is one of the 45 colleges and halls that form the University of Oxford. The conference lectures will be in the historic Holywell Music Room of the Wadham College.  Attendees will be housed in the colleges ancient and modern buildings, which over the summer offer accommodation on a business hotel/BnB level.  The social program will include a Conference Dinner in the grand hall of the College as well as an excursion into the city and surrounding of Oxford.
