Waters has launched a programme to support scientific innovation in the fields of health and life science research, sports science, food safety, clinical research and environmental protection.
Through its Centers of Innovation Program, Waters is partnering with research scientists using Ultra-Performance Liquid Chromatography (UPLC) and mass spectrometry to open new doors to scientific discovery.
At launch, Waters is announcing partnerships with several scientists, including: Prof Jeremy Nicholson, professor and chair in biological chemistry, Department of Surgery and Cancer, Imperial College, London, UK - working in the field of metabolomic profiling and molecular phenotyping; Prof John Engen, associate professor of chemistry and chemical biology, Northeastern University, Boston, Massachusetts, US - using hydrogen/deuterium exchange and mass spectrometry to study the influence of protein conformation on disease; Prof James Scrivens, Department of Biological Sciences, University of Warwick, Coventry, UK - applying advanced mass spectrometry to the field of protein therapeutics; and Prof Julie Leary, Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology, University of California, Davis, California, US - using mass spectrometry to probe the affect of certain bacteria and viruses on host organisms.
The Centers of Innovation Program will offer programme partners various forms of research support and assistance in raising awareness of their research.
