1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 From: Beth Ann Bell <eabell.zircon@xxxxxxxxx> Dear Colleagues, I am reaching out to invite interested students to apply to the UCLA SIMS Student Workshop, which will be held in February 2025. The application deadline is coming up in a few weeks (Dec. 2). Please share this with any graduate or advanced undergraduate students who may be interested in attending. 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 â?? 27, 2025 (arrival Feb. 23, departure Feb. 27). Lodging and some travel costs will be covered for domestic participants travelling from outside Los Angeles county. Interested students can apply to the workshop using the instructions at: https://uclasims.epss.ucla.edu/sims-workshop-2025/ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://uclasims.epss.ucla.edu/sims-workshop-2025/__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!eTL-vYmiw69Uj-4wO-HM82OBW0vTgxgFb468S9ykglQxWtWzIp4JPu5Jv-Yc15U02mTi0vWqLdhdTcdNDRCxU7mbxg$> The application deadline is December 2nd and decisions on admissions will be made in late December or early January.
