BAMS Annual Vendor' Night

Abstract
This is a major highlight of the BAMS dinner season, when we gather with our corporate sponsors and meet in a highly social and convivial atmosphere.
 
There will not be a featured speaker, but it still promises to be an entertaining evening, with the evening finale being an exciting raffle of prizes donated by our favorite vendors and sponsors!
 
BAMS corporate sponsors for 2007 will have put up a technical poster and a table to distribute literature or demonstrate products during Vendor Night.
 
Join us for what promises to be a terrific evening!

The San Francisco Bay Area Mass Spectrometry discussion group was formed in 1980 to provide a regular gathering for people interested in mass spectrometry and allied topics. BAMS currently has a membership of about 280 individual and 20 corporate members, and meets 8-10 times per year for a midweek dinner and lecture.  Meetings attract between 30 and 90 people, and are held at a restaurant or hotel in the bay area convenient for our speaker.  We usually convene at 6:00 pm for cocktails, dinner at 7:00 pm, and lecture at 8:15 pm.

If you have suggestions for a meeting topic, or know of a prominent mass spectrometrist who will be visiting the bay area, please contact our program chair.
