Chemistry professor Geneviève Sauvé, on behalf of 15 investigators from 8 departments across the university, will be acquiring a matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometer Fall of 2023. This is made possible by an NSF MRI: Track 1 grant recommended for funding by the Division of Chemistry. This new, state-of-the art instrument will enable a wide range of innovative and transformative research activities that depend upon a soft mass spectroscopic technique with a large mass range, including analysis of fragile macromolecules, complex biomaterials, and synthetic polymers. It will be located in Millis Hall G10, along with complementary mass spectroscopy and NMR instruments.
Congratulations, Dr. Sauvé!
