How Teaching Organic Chemistry Can Be Like Teaching a Foreign Language

Northeastern University’s Mass Spectrometry Facility has been awarded a $2.2 million research infrastructure grant from the Massachusetts Life Sciences Center (MLSC) to build a cutting-edge core supporting single-cell proteomics research. The award, through the Center’s Research Infrastructure program, will establish a fully integrated pipeline that enables researchers to measure proteins at single-cell resolution, filling a […]
