JAAS supports this important annual meeting presenting new developments in all aspects of plasma spectrochemistry with a themed issue each year.

Highlights of the work presented at the conference include a Tutorial Review from Frank Vanhaecke and colleagues on the use of single-collector and multi-collector ICP-mass spectrometry for isotopic analysis, and a Hot Article from Barry Sharp and co-workers on an open, non-contact cell for laser ablation-ICP-mass spectrometry.

For an overview of the 2009 Winter Conference, please see Kevin Francesconi's Editorial.
