DGMS            

We are delighted to welcome you to the 57th Annual Conference of Deutsche Gesellschaft für Massenspektrometrie (DGMS) in Leipzig. 

Join us at this year's Annual Conference of the DGMS in Leipzig, taking place from March 10 - 13, 2026, at Universität Leipzig, Sportwissenschaftliche Fakultät, Jahnallee 59, Haus 1, 04109 Leipzig.

The Bruker team is looking forward to welcoming you at our booth to share valuable insights and discuss our latest mass spectrometry solutions designed to deliver fast, precise, and comprehensive analytical results.

Program Highlights:

• Wolfgang Paul Study Awards Session: Celebrate outstanding early‑career researchers recognized for exceptional master’s and doctoral work in mass spectrometry.
• Poster Presentations: Explore a wide range of innovative research topics and engage with contributors shaping the future of MS technologies and applications.

The German Society for Mass Spectrometry (DGMS) annually awards the Wolfgang Paul Study Prize - sponsored by Bruker - for outstanding master's and doctoral theses in the field of mass spectrometry in terms of quality and originality.
