Where to park?
Parking Option 1: The back of the Chesterfield building is open for free parking after 5pm and has free 2hr parking before that. Spots will be limited though.
Parking Option 2, if Option 1 is full: A parking deck at 704 W Pettigrew St. near Chesterfield will be open from 6pm-11pm (map attached). Individuals who park over there will need to pull a ticket to enter but will be able to leave without paying between 6pm-11pm.
Parking Option 3: There is street parking available around the building including a pay lot next door at 803 W Main St.
Title: The role of Reference Materials in measuring emerging contaminants of concern
Abstract: Standard Reference Materials (SRMs) are homogeneous, well-characterized materials that are used to validate measurements and improve the quality of analytical data (www.nist.gov/srm). The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has a wide range of SRMs that have values assigned for clinically important analytes, legacy organic pollutants, and toxic metals. These SRMs can serve as target materials for method development and measurement for contaminants of emerging concern. These natural matrix SRMs include human serum and plasma, fish tissue, soil, house dust, and domestic sludge. These SRMs are useful to the global analytical community and can serve as materials for quality assurance measurements and method development. This presentation will highlight the ten SRMs available and discuss how environmental and exposure science can benefit from their use, especially in the area of emerging chemicals.
Title: Mucinomics as the next frontier of mass spectrometry
Abstract: Mucin-domain glycoproteins are densely O-glycosylated and play key roles in a host of biological functions. However, their dense O-glycosylation remains enigmatic both in glycoproteomic landscape and structural dynamics, primarily due to the challenges associated with studying mucin domains. Here, we present advances in the mass spectrometric analysis of mucins, including the characterization of mucinases, software comparisons, and complete mucinomic mapping of translationally relevant mucin proteins.

Student Symposium Agenda:
Jessie Chappel (Baker Lab) - Utilizing Aggregated Molecular Phenotype (AMP) Scores to Visualize Simultaneous Molecular Changes in Mass Spectrometry Imaging (MSI) Data
Morgan Bailey (Fitzgerald Lab) - Comparative Analysis of Protein Folding Stability Based Profiling Methods for the Characterization of Disease Phenotypes
Cameron Worthington (Glish Lab) - Utilizing DIMS-MS to Explore the Effects of In-Source Lipid Dimer Fragmentation on Lipid Signal Intensity
Ying Xi (Muddiman Lab) - Topographic Mass Spectrometry Imaging on Non-flat Surfaces with Infrared Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Electrospray Ionization (IR-MALDESI)
Zoe Millbern (Vinueza Lab) - Textile and Textile Dye Analysis via Direct Analysis in Real Time, High Resolution Mass Spectrometry
Each speaker will have 10-12 minutes for the presentation followed by 2-3 minutes for questions. Speakers- please also be prepared to introduce the subsequent speaker. Following the presentations we'll have a short presentation of the travel award checks!
