Earlier this week, Research Professor Jason Amsden attended the Advances in Stable Isotope Technology and Applications Conference at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. The three day conference included tutorials about the history of stable isotope measurements, a keynote talk from Dr. Jennifer Stern of NASA Goddard about stable isotope measurements in planetary science, and short talks on various applications of stable isotope measures and encompassing technologies. Dr. Amsden gave a short talk on "Eliminating the Throughput vs Resolution Tradeoff in Sector Mass Spectrometer Miniaturization" which was well received by the attendees.
