Collaborate
Access to the resources available at the UWPR is through collaborations with Resource members. The mechanism of proposing a collaboration is through dialogue with a Resource member and ultimately the submission of an abstract. If you are interested in a collaboration, please interact with an appropriate UWPR member (specifically Drs. Goodlett, Heinecke, MacCoss or Bruce) and, pending consent, register and submit a collaboration request via the informatics abstract and dissemination platform.
Note that the UWPR is focused on supporting only the best science, from novel biology to cutting edge technology. Only abstracts proposing generation of novel biological data and/or novel use of existing technology will be pursued. Collaboration requests are reviewed on a monthly basis to determine suitability and acceptance of the proposed project. If your needs can be serviced by one of the proteomics core facilities in the area, your project is likely not appropriate for the Proteomics Resource.
Local fee-for-service facilities available to service your proteomics needs.
SLU Proteomic Affiliates
Those University of Washington laboratories with extensive expertise in proteomics data generation who wish to utilize the Proteomics Resource independent of one of the primary members may petition the Resource Advisory Group for affiliate membership. PI's from these laboratories should submit a one page bullet summary of their laboratory expertise along with their NIH biosketch as well as with similar material from the expert in their laboratory who will conduct the experiments. We expect that this individual will have extensive prior training in the field of mass spectrometry based proteomics. Having these items, the Resource Advisory Group will consider the request at the next regularly scheduled meeting. If approved the affiliate laboratory will be able to submit abstracts directly describing the proposed work for review.
Progress Report
All investigators performing projects at the UWPR are required to submit a
project summary to the UWPR advisory committee within 12 months of data acquisition.
This project summary, can be brief in nature (no more than a page in length), should
highlight the scientific progress made as a result of the UWPR collaboration.
A manuscript or a poster can suffice. Failure to supply a progress report will
negatively impact future access to the UWPR.
Publication/Citation
It is our policy that your collaborator(s) within the UWPR share in
co-authorship of any manuscripts that are the result of work performed at the Resource.
The Proteomics Resource should be acknowledged as follows in publications:
