‌The 2016 VMSG conference takes place in Dublin in January 2016. The conference will be preceded by a full-day analytical workshop on January the 5th. This is open to a maximum of 24 postgraduate students and postdoctoral fellows upon payment of conference registration fees. The workshop will be dedicated to 2-dimensional trace element mapping of igneous minerals by laser-ablation ICP-MS, a technique used by iCRAG researchers. The Geology Department at Trinity College Dublin operates two Excimer laser-based ICP-MS systems, which will both be available for the workshop.
