SUMMARY:MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry Workshop hosted by UNC Chemistry Core Facilities
DESCRIPTION:The workshop’s goal is to raise awareness about the Bruker UltrafleXtreme MALDI-TOF MS available at the UNC Mass Spectrometry Core Lab for open instrument access and sample submissions. Additionally\, we plan to provide MALDI-TOF users with useful knowledge and skills to help them succeed in their analyses. \nThis workshop\, conducted in partnership with Bruker Daltonics and UNC Mass Spectrometry (MSCL) and Soft Matter (UNCSMCL) core labs\, centers on the practical utilization of MALDI-TOF MS for precise mass measurement of small to macromolecular analytes that include many soft materials. Tailored for both current and prospective MALDI-TOF MS users\, the event highlights optimization strategies and practical applications while promoting collaboration within the scientific community. \nAttendees can participate in this event either in person or virtually. Space is limited for in-person attendance\, so be sure to register now. For those attending the in-person presentations\, join us for a light lunch where you may engage in open conversation with Bruker representatives\, UNC core lab directors\, and other scientists. There will also be a limited in-person sample preparation and instrument operation demonstration after lunch for invited current and prospective UNC MALDI-TOF users. \n  \nVisit the event webpage for a full schedule and registration information.

SUMMARY:UNC SOM Core Voucher Program Applications Due
DESCRIPTION:The voucher program is intended for UNC researchers with a primary or joint appointment to the UNC School of Medicine and their trainees to apply for up to $10\,000 in funding to be spent at one or more SOM core facilities which invoice for services. This is specifically intended for NEW method development or PILOT DATA for currently unfunded projects that ALSO meets one of the following criteria:\n\nEstablishes the applicant as a new customer of at least one core facility\nCreates a multi-core pipeline\nAllows a customer of a core facility to use a new technique or methodology within a core they have previously used in other capacities (this is at the discretion of the core director)\nApplicant has been impacted by a recent grant termination (last 6 months) or a programmatic change at the NIH or other federal agencies\, and is collecting pilot data to target new federal funding opportunities or new internal collaborations (see special note in Application Instructions)\n\nApplicants (who may be PIs or trainees)  will be required to meet with and have the written approval of the core directors for core facilities they intend to use at the time of submission and must plan to fully spend out their funds by June 30\, 2026. Carry-over of funds is not guaranteed\, and applicants should be aware that the technical feasibility to complete the study within the proposed timeframe will be an important factor in award decisions.\n\nCores which can be used are limited to those administered by the School of Medicine or who serve a majority-SOM customer base. To request an eligibility review of a non-SOM core\, please e-mail kara_clissold@med.unc.edu.\n\nPlease find the full RFA and list of eligible cores attached and all information\, including necessary documentation\, a submission form template to aid in organizing the application\, core director/applicant signature forms\, and submission instructions\, can be found on the ORT/CFAC Voucher Program‘s Website: https://www.med.unc.edu/corefacilities/core–voucher–program/\n\nApplications for the Voucher Program are now open for submission and will be due September 22\, 2025 at 11:59 pm \n\nPlease direct any questions about this program to Kara Clissold in the SOM Office of Research Technologies at kara_clissold@med.unc.edu
