Welcome

The Brodbelt group focuses on the development and application of mass spectrometry to a variety of biological problems. We are interested in developing innovative methods for activating ions to generate informative fragmentation patterns, thus improving the structural characterization of proteins, nucleic acids, and lipids. We are also implementing strategies to increase the selectivity of mass spectrometry by incorporation of chromophores or trackable mass tags that allow targeted analysis of complex mixtures.
