DESCRIPTION:Researchers are invited to attend presentations by Bruker exper
 ts and learn about modern\, state-of-the-art approaches to molecular imagi
 ng\, proteomics\, metabolomics\, and lipidomics. The presentations will be
  at 2:00pm on Tuesday\, November 5\, in the Pederson Conference Room (ADMN
  428). In-person attendance is encouraged\, but those who need to attend v
 irtually should register to receive a link by email.   \n\nIf you are inte
 rested in high performance MS in general\, or MS applications in any of th
 ese fields\, then you may find these presentations useful.   Bruker also p
 rovides instruments for targeted analysis or requiring lower performance. 
  If you have an interest in any of Bruker’s mass spectrometry technologi
 es\, with high- or low-end instruments\, this is also an opportunity to me
 et with Bruker and discuss these needs.\n\nThe Bruker ultrahigh resolution
  9.4T Fourier Transform Mass Spectrometer (FTMS) in the Arkansas Statewide
  Mass Spectrometry facility\, established on the University of Arkansas ca
 mpus almost 25 years ago\, has been retired. The instrument has been the f
 lagship instrument for the core facility\, and researchers across campus\,
  the state\, and nation have benefited from the FTMS. With the recent reti
 rement of the FTMS\, replacement instruments that provide the high perform
 ance and specificity of an FTMS-based system\, but without reliance on sup
 erconducting magnets and liquid helium\, are being considered\, specifical
 ly instruments that can be used for a variety of research areas across cam
 pus.  \n\nBruker experts will be on campus to describe their newer and non
 -helium reliant alternative instruments and workflows\, as well as the cur
 rent state of the art in mass spectrometry applications to various fields.
  The presenters will discuss the advantages of molecular typing and subtyp
 ing for molecular imaging\, the use of high-performance MS in proteomics\,
  and applications involving metabolomics and lipidomics.  These techniques
  can be applied across a wide variety of fields such as \n\nagriculture an
 d food science\,chemistry and physics\, biological sciencesengineering\, b
 iomedical/medical and health sciences\, semiconductors\, membranes and fil
 ters\, archeology\, and material science. The MS imaging technique is comm
 only used by pathologists to image tissue sections to seek the margins of 
 tumors based on molecular signatures that differentiate normal and disease
 d tissues and cannot be determined using optical techniques.  In fact\, it
  is now possible to differentiate tissues based on location of target mole
 cules as well as differences in shape and size.  This can be critical if t
 he disease is based on chemical conformation rather than composition.  Thi
 s same technique could probe cervices in ancient artifacts\, particles on 
 membranes or filters\, and even semiconductor surfaces by mapping chemical
  composition across surfaces where both the identity of the analyte and it
 s position within a sample are important.
