The IDeA National Resource for Proteomics is a partnership between the Arkansas INBRE (IDeA Network of Biomedical Research Excellence) and the Oklahoma INBRE. This partnership unites the cutting-edge, discovery phase proteomic capabilities at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) Proteomics Facility with the state-of-the-art, targeted validation proteomics at the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation (OMRF) Multiplexing Protein Quantification Core to create a national proteomics resource for the IDeA (Institutional Development Award) Program.

The UAMS Proteomics Facility has mass spectrometers specific for discovery phase proteomics, while the OMRF Multiplexing Protein Quantification Core is equipped with instrumentation for targeted validation proteomics. Both cores are operated with a fee-for-service model. Consultation with our individual core directors is strongly encouraged prior to submitting a sample for analysis.
