FT-ICR and Structural Mass Spectrometry Laboratory

A research laboratory exploring biological and biochemical problems at the molecular level through extreme-resolution mass spectrometry

The FT-ICR Lab is a pioneer research laboratory specialized in top-down proteomics, structural mass spectrometry and metabolomic fingerprinting.
The lab is a core center of the European Network of FT-ICR Mass Spectrometry Centers (EU_FT-ICR_MS network) and one of the two centers of the Portuguese Instruct Research Site (Instruct-PT)
The FT-ICR Lab is integrated in
BioISI - Biosystems and Integrative Sciences Institute
