Dear Subscriber !
Welcome to the July issue of EVISA's Speciation Newsletter.
Last week about 280 Experts from 28 countries came together in Oviedo for the 4th International Symposium on Metallomics. The organizers, Alfredo Sanz-Medel (Chair), Maria Montes-Bayon (Cochair) and Jörg Bettmer (Secretary) had put together a two-stream program consisting of 5 plenary lectures, 16 invited lectures and 63 contributed oral presentations. The scientific program further included several poster sessions with about 135 posters and an exhibition of scientific instrumentation. All former organizers were present underlining the succesful continuation. Intense discussions between the different groups during the breaks and poster sessions but also during the social program were a strong indicator for the establishment of a metallomics community. This is especially important, since research in the field of metallomics requires the interdisciplinary interaction and cooperation of researchers from many different fields for which the International Symposium on Metallomics is a kind of meeting point. An important part of this community are researchers working on speciation analysis of metallic species in biological systems and this part was well represented. Other researchers from toxicology, pharmacology, medicine and biology were present but still less well represented. The next symposium in 2015 will take place in Beijing, China and will hopefully attract an even bigger number of participants.
