Waters and three universities have signed a collaborative research agreement to support the growth, development and adoption of novel mass-spectrometry (MS) technologies.
These include Waters's Synapt high-definition MS (HDMS) system.
The agreement - with the universities of Warwick, Coventry and Warwickshire - paves the way for research projects for analysts using biomedical MS, validated by peer-reviewed publications, presentations at international conferences and an outreach education programme.
At the core of the collaborative agreement is the establishment of the Waters Centre for Biomedical Mass Spectrometry at the University of Warwick.
The centre will offer scientists worldwide an accessible resource to enable the adoption of LC-/MS-based techniques in life science.
