The Vincent Coates Foundation Mass Spectrometry Laboratory at Stanford University has introduced students in the Translational Research and Applied Medicine (M-TRAM) program to the latest biomedical research tools. The lab features a new Bruker timsTOF Ultra, an advanced mass spectrometry instrument, which is among a handful available nationwide.

Mass spectrometry is essential for documenting and quantifying peptides and proteins at a cellular level, providing critical insights into human health and disease. The Bruker timsTOF Ultra represents a significant investment by the Office of the Vice Provost and Dean of Research to support cutting-edge research technology.

Students participating in this month-long immersive experience gain direct access to and training on the operation of this sophisticated instrument. This opportunity enhances their ability to design impactful research, understand disease mechanisms, and evaluate treatment effects, thereby preparing them for careers in the evolving science-based workforce.

The Stanford University Mass Spectrometry (SUMS) multidisciplinary research facility serves as an institution-wide resource offering state-of-the-art training, technology, and services to faculty, postdocs, and student researchers across various scientific disciplines.
