As of March 16, 2020 the Genomics Core will stop accepting samples due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Do not submit or ship any samples to the Genomics Core until further notice. At this time we are not processing any samples. If you have questions about the status of samples that had been submitted before the closure, please write to gtsf@msu.edu, and we will respond to your query shortly.
In response to concerns over COVID-19, the Mass Spectrometry and Metabolomics Core is suspending training of new users, effective March 17, 2020. However, the Core will continue to remain open to trained instrument users for sample analyses. Core staff will be working reduced hours and can be available by appointment if necessary. Any meetings including consulting sessions that can be conducted remotely will be done via Zoom or via e-mail to limit person-to-person contact. We will also keep doors to the Core closed and locked, however trained users with key card access will continue to have access. If you need to drop off samples for Core staff to process, please coordinate this with staff via email (either individual staff email or by using the RTSF.massspec@msu.edu email address) to ensure that a staff member is available to receive your sample(s). As always, if there are instrument issues, please email Core staff and we will do our best to take care of any issues that arise but be aware that our response may not be as quick as normal.
As of March 17, 2020 the Proteomics Core will stop accepting samples due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Do not submit or ship any samples to the Proteomics Core until further notice. If you have questions about the status of samples, please write to whitten3@msu.edu, and we will respond to your query shortly.
