The Proteomics & Metabolomics shared resource at Fred Hutch provides support for mass spectrometry-based proteomics and metabolomics research. With advanced instrumentation and a highly trained staff, the core offers consultation and services in sample preparation, sample separation, data collection and data analysis. Our clients include scientists within the Fred Hutch/University of Washington/Seattle Children's Cancer Consortium and at research institutions around the country.
Training Opportunities
We offer proteomics and metabolomics services to researchers throughout the Fred Hutch/University of Washington Cancer Consortium as well as outside institutions and companies. All core instruments are solely operated by our staff. While we operate on a fee-for-service model, we take a very collaborative approach in working with users of the core. The best results occur when we understand the goal of the project, agree upon the methods, agree upon the sample preparation and data collection strategy, and have a strong vision of the data analysis that will be needed.
If you would like to learn more about training opportunities, possible collaboration or services, please contact us at proteomics@fredhutch.org or at metabolomics@fredhutch.org.
In-Person Courses & Workshops
Special Training Topic: Analysis of ARTEMIS-derived MHC-I Peptides by Mass Spectrometry
Recent course hosted on July 24th, 2023.
Analysis of ARTEMIS-derived MHC-1 Peptides by Mass Spectrometry
Mass Spectrometry-based Proteomics Spring Training
Course recommended for individuals who are currently utilizing proteomics or who plan to use proteomics in the near future. The course is intended to educate novice users of the technology to the level where the have a solid understanding of it and could apply the gained knowledge to their research.
Topics Covered
- Basics of Mass Spectrometers
- Data Acquisition; LC/MS
- Protein Identification and Quantification
- Charaterizing Post-translational Modifications
- Analysis of Complex Mixtures
- Targeted Proteomics
- Basis for Database Seatch Algorithms
- Rudimentary Analysis of Proteomics Data
- Preparing Samples for Mass Spectrometry
Class is free to Fred Hutch employees. Class is generally offered late spring around May - June.
