Zhejiang University, a prestigious institution of higher education, boasts a long history and an exceptional reputation. Situated in Hangzhou, a city celebrated for its rich cultural heritage and scenic splendor, the university traces its roots to Qiushi Academy, established in 1897. This academy ranks among the earliest modern higher education institu-tions founded by the Chinese people. Throughout its 128-year legacy, Zhejiang University has adhered to its motto, "Seeking Truth and Pursuing Innovation," while shouldering the responsi-bility of societal service.

  The university places a strong emphasis on the contributions of measurement science and analytical testing technologies. It has been at the forefront of pioneering reforms to pro-mote interdisciplinary academic exchange and the advancement of analytical testing tech-nologies, with mass spectrometry being a key supported initiative. To this end, the university established the Consortium for Advanced Technologies of Mass Spectrometry (CATMS). As a mass spectrometry interest group at Zhejiang University, CATMS includes schools such as the Department of Chemistry, College of Chemical and Biological Engineering, College of Envi-ronmental and Resource Sciences, School of Earth Sciences, School of Medicine, College of Life Sciences, among others. The consortium provides a robust platform for mass spectrome-try scientists and users by organiz-ing annual specialized seminars and academic forums featuring domestic and international experts, effectively fostering the dynamic exchange and convergence of innovative ideas.


    To date, CATMS has assembled a diverse collection of high-end mass spectrometry instruments, including but not limited to: 

   


    Prosperity of Mass Spectrometry in Research Institutions and Indus-try: As a pioneering center for mass spectrometry development in China, Hangzhou has witnessed significant advancements in science, technology, and higher education in recent years. The city now hosts 29 universities, over 100 research institutions, more than 1,000 biotechnology corporations, and over 10 mass spectrometry testing and manufacturing companies. Beyond Zhejiang University, other local institutions such as Westlake University and Zhejiang University of Technology have also established state-of-the-art mass spec-trometry shared facilities. The demand for mass spectrometry extends beyond academic universities, reaching the biotech industry as well as ecological, environmental, agricultural, food, and drug regulatory agencies. This expansive user base has spurred the growth of numerous commercial analytical testing service laboratories and domestic instrument com-panies. 

    With the growing mass spectrometry community in Hangzhou and across China, the city recently welcomed over 3,000 attendees at the 2023 CMSS mass spectrometry conference. From 2015 to 2023, the Chinese Mass Spectrometry Conference has seen a steady increase in scholarly participation, reflecting the vibrant and thriving landscape of Chinese mass spec-trometry society.
