International Centre of Excellence
for Real Time Mass Spectrometry

About Us

The international centre of excellence for real time mass spectrometry (ICE-RT-MS) is a unique centre which extends across the M5 universities, specifically building on the relationship between the Universities of Nottingham, Leicester, Birmingham and Loughborough, in addition to partnering with equipment suppliers (Waters, Ionicon Analytic). ICE-RT-MS will be run by permanently employed staff within the University of Nottingham and will facilitate the dissemination of knowledge, shared equipment access, coordinated training, in addition to supporting training, pre-competitive research and commercial research projects.
