Shimadzu has partnered with academic researchers to bring together the insight and creativity of academic researchers with the instrument development expertise of Shimadzu to build truly integrated partnerships that translate innovative research into powerful Life Science products and platforms that impact future discovery and increase diagnostic value. This talk will focus on the development of automated protein sample preparation immuno-MS platforms, including a fully-automated workstation. These new research platforms suggest great potential application for development of future cardiac ischemia and Parkinson's Disease diagnostic assays. Academic partnerships aimed at new biomarker candidate discoveries will also be highlighted, including the development of nanoparticle-assisted biomarker discovery platforms. Applications of a new Nanotrap Biomarker Discovery Platform to Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy biomarker candidate discovery will also be discussed. These academic/industrial partnerships result in new products with many applications, and leverage the creativity of academic researchers to expand the frontiers of life science.
