Proteomics Facility

The Proteomics facility at WEHI connects researchers with a highly specialised team and state-of-the-art proteomics platforms to advance research.

The facility provides the latest mass spectrometric instrumentation allowing for researcher-led exploration, identification and quantification of proteins and peptides.

Our team of experts utilise advanced proteomic technologies to facilitate the seamless translation of results to our collaborators, from experimental design and sample preparation to data analysis and statistics.

Our services and instruments

Mass spectrometry (MS) and proteomics require specialist training and instrumentation which is beyond the scope and capacity of most research laboratories. The facility makes this expertise and equipment accessible, offering a ‘complete’ approach to support researchers through all stages of planning, experimentation, and data analysis for proteomics.

Working in a collaborative model that offers customised services, the facility team meets with researchers to discuss aims and expectations, learn about the origin and type of samples they want to submit, and advise on workflows, including appropriate experimental controls.

Our team also trains users in sample processing or MS instrumentation if upskilling is required for their research.

Services

The Proteomics Facility offers a complete approach to generating mass spectrometry-based data from proteomics experiments. Services are billed at an hourly rate, please contact us to inquire about pricing.

 

Proteomic workflows

Data analysis

Biostatisticians are available to perform data analysis of proteomic experiments, including data assessment and quality control reports. Our team of experts performs database searching on behalf of the user and can provide raw data and outputs as a part of the service. Analysis pipelines are custom-built and tailored to each project run through the facility.
