SUMMARY:Mass Spectrometry Made Simple; or\, How to Weigh a Molecule (Even Though There Isn’t a Way to Weigh a Molecule)
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by ACS Webinars and ACS Office of Career and Professional Education\nOnline via Zoom\, Free\, Registration required\n\nWhat does an exploding car and a motorboat have in common with mass spectrometry? \n\n\n\nLee Polite of Axion Anyaltical Labs and his entertaining analogies return to ACS Webinars for another journey through the world of mass spectrometry! Mass spectrometry is one of the most important analytical tools available to scientists\, but many chemists feel its complexity is beyond understanding. From the fundamentals to quadrupoles to GCMS to LCMS to triple quadrupoles\, he will explain how these different instruments work\, how best to choose the most appropriate tool for a specific application\, and break down this seemingly complex topic into simple steps appropriate for scientists at all levels of experience! \nThis ACS Webinar is moderated by Bryan Tweedy of the American Chemical Society and co-produced with the Office of Career and Professional Education. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat You Will Learn\n\nThe fundamental operation of a mass spectrometer\, the world’s most powerful identification tool\nWhy GC/MS is the single best approach for identifying most unknowns\, while LC/MS/MS is by far the most sensitive instrument on the market\nHow to differentiate among the various instrument choices\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWebinar Details\n\nThursday\, September 14\, 2023 @ 2-3pm ET\nFree to Register with ACS ID\nThe slides will be available for download on the day of the event\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCo-produced With\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nACS Office of Career and Professional Education

SUMMARY:The Gut Microbiome-Brain Alliance: The Connection to Health and Disorders
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by ACS Webinars\nOnline via Zoom\, Free\, Registration required\n\nThe Human microbiota\, often referred to as the “forgotten organ\,” is a large collection of predominantly bacteria\, viruses\, protozoa\, fungi\, and archaea. With around 40 trillion bacterial cells\, its size eclipses the number of cells in your own body. But\, what does the latest research tell us about this hidden ecosystem and the constant communication that exists between the gut and brain? \n\n\n\nJoin an expert panel from Bayer\, the California Institute of Technology\, and CAS as they discuss recent research on the gut microbiome−brain axis\, its complexity\, functionality\, and its effect on health and disorders. Register now for free to discover how gut microbiota in humans has evolved and how it plays a key role in health and disease. \nThis ACS Webinar is a co-produced with CAS\, a division of the American Chemical Society. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat You Will Learn\n\nExamples of how the gut microbiome-brain axis uses constant bidirectional communication in its role in many physiological processes in the human body\nWhat is the correlation between living microorganisms found in the gut and their effect on gastrointestinal and mental disorders\nWhat are some clinical applications of gut-microbiota-related substances and metabolites with their development pipelines\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWebinar Details\n\nWednesday\, Sept 20\, 2023 @ 2-3:30pm ET\nFree to Register with ACS ID\nThe slides will be available for download on the day of the event
