Three up-and-comers? Rebecca Beveridge (University of Strathclyde) for her brilliant work on disordered proteins with MS. Charlotte Uetrecht (HPI and XFEL) investigates structural changes of viral protein complexes with modern MS methods. And finally, Lisa Jones (University of Maryland, Baltimore) uses lasers and MS to locate proteins in cells.

Advice? Work hard, collaborate with people with different expertise and enjoy yourself.
