LC-MS Training: A Hands on Approach (Kenya)

18 - 22 September 2017, Nairobi, Kenya


Introduction
This new LC-MS course is an expansion of our on-going GC-MS training programme.  It will cover the practical aspects of liquid chromatography, method development, quantitative analysis and spectral interpretation of LC-MS.

The Pan Africa Chemistry Network was set up by the Royal Society of Chemistry to advance the chemical sciences across Africa by building a self-sustaining science base. This expanded analytical skills training programme will up-skill and empower Africa and develop practical analytical skills to solve local challenges and contribute to global scientific knowledge.

This workshop is supported by GSK as part of our five-year partnership train more than 400 African scientists by 2020, as well as training local chemists to train others, leaving a lasting legacy.
