Chemical Biology Research Articles
Recognition:
Our recent article on Discrimination of Prostate Cancer Cells and Non-malignant Cells using Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry, published in The Analyst and presenting some work by Matt and Ehsan, has been selected for inclusion in the Royal Society of Chemistry’s Chemical Biology Research Articles virtual journal. This virtual journal brings together all chemical biology literature from more than 15 RSC journals in order to raise its visibility and profile in the chemical biology community.
Enhancing new developments in ToF-SIMS through researcher exchanges

Enhancing new developments in ToF-SIMS through researcher exchanges
We have been successful in securing EPSRC funds to bring expert researchers to Manchester and to send some of our group to the USA and The Netherlands. Later this year we will be hosting Professor Stephen Reichenbach from Nebraska University for three months and we will also be welcoming back Professors Nick Winograd and Barbara Garrison from Penn State University. Alex will be travelling to Nebraska next year and John (F) will be exchanging with a colleague from Professor Ron Heeren‘s group in Amsterdam. There is also funding for Professor Roger Webb of Surrey University to visit Penn State. [EPSRC award: EP/F012985/1, more information …]
