Ends:  Feb 27, 2025 17:00 (MT)
Associated with  Geochronology Division
The Ion Microprobe Laboratory at UCLA will be offering a workshop for graduate students and advanced undergraduate students on the application of secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) to the Earth and planetary sciences.  The workshop will combine lectures on the fundamentals of SIMS, applications to a variety of topics in the natural sciences, and practical demonstrations using our two large-radius SIMS, the CAMECA ims1270 and ims1290.  Topics of special emphasis will include geochronology, stable isotope geochemistry, trace element geochemistry, and cosmochemistry.  The workshop will be held at UCLA on February 24 – 27, 2025 (arrival Feb. 23, departure Feb. 27).  Lodging and up to $400 in travel costs will be covered for domestic participants travelling from outside the Los Angeles area.  Interested students can apply to the workshop using the instructions at: https://uclasims.epss.ucla.edu/sims-workshop-2025/
The application deadline is December 2nd and decisions on admissions will be made in late December or early January.  For further information, please contact Beth Ann Bell (ebell21@ucla.edu) and Nozomi Matsuda (nozomi32@g.ucla.edu).
