Welcome to Mass Spec 2022
The focus of this Symposium is the practical application of mass spectrometry (MS) in the biotechnology industry. Mass Spectrometry is a critical analytical technology used in the discovery, development, and commercialization of biopharmaceuticals. The goals of the symposium are to communicate best practices and innovative approaches for mass spectrometry applications in biopharma, as well as promote colleague networking and open discussions, thereby allowing attendees to advance their own projects more efficiently and confidently in industry, academia and regulatory agencies.
In-Person Attendees
Presentations will be held at the Westin Long Beach in Long Beach, CA, September 28-30, 2022. Symposium registration includes all sessions from Wednesday through Friday, continental breakfast, networking lunch, networking breaks for three
days, and a networking reception on Thursday evening. The 2022 Mass Spec Symposium will be preceded on Tuesday, September 27 by the Short Course "Fundamentals of Mass Spectrometry and Applications of Mass Spectrometry". The short
