Southern California Society for Microscopy and Microanalysis Spring Symposium
The SCSMM will be holding its annual All-Day Symposium on March 11 at Caltech. Our keynote speaker for the meeting will be Dr. Nicholas Ritchie of NIST talking about Desktop Spectrum Analyser II. Dr. Ritchie is the MAS Tour Speaker.
SCSMM would like to invite local microscopists and microanalysts to submit titles and brief abstracts for both platform and poster presentations. We will endeavor to offer a broad range of topics including both physical and biological sciences, SEM, TEM, FIB, and microanalysis themed talks.
The format will be similar to last year’s successful meeting at UCLA at which we had a combination of professional technical talks, student platform presentations and posters, and vendor talks. We will initially offer one student platform slot for each local university. Awards will be offered for the best student platform presentation ($500) and the best student poster presentation ($300) to support travel to M&M 2010 to be held in Portland, OR. We ask that each university internally select their student for the platform presentation.
Please sent titles and abstracts to jrporter@uci.edu
