"Imaging Mass Spectrometry; Protocols for Mass Microscopy"

New edition: Mass microscopy experimental protocol - was issued.
The Japanese version of the protocol was published last year after it was first released by Springer as an English version promoting advanced knowledge in this rapidly growing field.
The cover illustration of a mass microscope is by Kunio Okawara, the Japanese mechanical designer famous for his designs for the anime series Mobile Suit Gundam, and is inspired by the Shimadzu machine architecture as described by the editor, Mitsutoshi Setou.

Every Tuesday, the molecular anatomy seminar will be held

The molecular anatomy seminar is held in Hamamatsu University School of Medicine.
