Symposium for users of mass spectrometry resources as well as those interested in finding out more about applications of the technology. The Mass Spec Users’ Meeting is an annual opportunity for Stanford and community scientists to meet, mingle, and learn about research resources and ongoing mass spec related research at Stanford.

Keynote Speaker: Peter Jackson PhD, Professor of Microbiology and Immunology - Baxter Labs

Dr. Jackson’s lab focuses on enzyme mechanisms controlling cell growth and division, and cancer. At Stanford, he studied cell and centrosome cycles, SCF and APC/C E3 ubiquitin ligases and their inhibitors, cyclin-dependent and Polo kinases, and the Cdc14 and PP2A phosphatases. At Genentech, he developed drugs targeting cell cycle checkpoints (including the Chk1 inhibitor currently in clinical trials), cellular stress pathways, and tumor metabolism. His lab studies protein modifying and regulatory enzymes including acetyltransferases and E3 ubiquitin ligases controlling cell regeneration, cancer, and signaling in primary cilia. His lab has developed methods for proteomic network building and metabolomics to discover new human disease genes in ciliopathies, human degenerative diseases, and cancer

Other meeting highlights:

  • Participant Poster Session - Sign up during registration to bring and share your mass spec-relevant poster (new or existing).
  • Variability Survey & Discussion - A host of factors impact the development of an analytical project.  Your survey responses will help stimulate a discussion of variability assessment practices in our community, and how they pertain to the types of experiments that we collectively face every day.  (survey now closed)
  • Campus Resource Lightning Round - Practical presentations on accessing and making the most of Stanford-wide programs.  In addition, directors of many Stanford core resources will be on hand and available for discussions
  • And as always, the famous prize raffle!
