How to start

First-time users. Browse our website to learn about our services and reach out to us by email at MassSpec@wustl.edu to schedule a meeting to discuss your project. You can also submit a Collaboration Request by scrolling down on this page. We will provide the best experimental and study design for your mass spectrometry needs through an in-person meeting, live video conference, or telephone call.


Returning-users. If you have worked with us before and know what you need, download and fill out a Sample Submission PDF Form from the options available for proteomics, metabolomics, lipidomics, or imaging MS samples.
