Lunch Seminar: Leveraging TIMS and Advanced Analyzers to Decipher Unresolved Complexity
- August 24, 12:45 – 13:45 pm
- Location: Room Gratte Ciel 1 & 2, Cité Internationale - Centre de Congrès
Join us for this lunchtime seminar and explore new possibilities in molecular analysis: Discover how trapped ion mobility spectrometry (TIMS), combined with advanced mass analyzers and fragmentation technologies, is opening new dimensions in analytical science. This session brings together leading researchers who are applying TIMS-enabled workflows to tackle some of today’s most complex analytical challenges.
From the detailed characterization of highly complex samples such as biofuels, to in-depth analysis of intact proteins, and advanced metabolomics and lipidomics approaches, learn how adding an extra dimension of separation can unlock deeper insights across diverse applications.

LabTalk: Faster, Higher, Smaller: The New Pioneers of Mass Spectrometry
- Speaker: Michael Easterling, Ph.D. VP Global Imaging, Bruker Scientific LLC
- Date and time: Tuesday, August 25, 14:00–15:00 CEST
- Location: Room Agora, Cité Internationale - Centre de Congrès
Join us and explore how recent advances in mass spectrometry are redefining what is possible. For years, the field was shaped by a fundamental trade-off between speed, sensitivity, and resolution. With the introduction of trapped ion mobility, that limitation has been redefined, opening new pathways to analyze complex biological systems with unprecedented depth and efficiency.
In this 15-minute lab talk, Michael Easterling, Ph.D. (VP Global Imaging, Bruker Scientific LLC), will share how scientists are pushing beyond previous boundaries, from reading proteomes at remarkable speed to analyzing intact protein assemblies and enabling insights at the single-cell level. The session highlights how innovation in separation and instrument design is driving a new wave of discovery across life science research.
