Faces of Mass Spectrometry

As an initiative of the ASMS Diversity Committee, JASMS editors are pleased to share the “Faces of Mass Spectrometry” interview series. The goal of this series is to highlight the diversity of ASMS members, as well as to demonstrate the various paths that one can undertake to achieve a career in mass spectrometry.

Read the June 2024 edition of the Faces of Mass Spectrometry featuring Jean Furtrell. Jean served President of ASMS 1976-1978 and continued to attend the annual meeting through this year (at age 90!). 

Jean was also featured in the ASMS Oral History Project
