IASIM-10
Alex presented the work of the group with a talk entitled ‘Imaging SIMS: Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry, 2D and 3D’ to the first International Association for Spectral Imaging (IASIM) meeting in Dublin, Ireland. IASIM-10 is essentially the third EASIM meeting (European Association for Spectral Imaging) which was retitled recently.
