𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐍𝐞𝐰𝐬: Oxford, UK based @omasstx, experts in the use of mass spectrometry in drug development, recently landed a $20M up front licensing deal with Roche on one of its preclinical candidates for IBF. Full video: biotechtv.com/post/omass-the…

Many thanks to Prof Carol Robinson and Dr Idlir Liko for talking to us about their entrepreneurial journey from an @OxfordChemistry lab to founding drug discovery company OMass. @omasstx @CVR_Research @OxUInnovation

Life sciences plays an important role in our society and economy, but it often struggles to secure funding. Ahead of our 10th anniversary, we spoke to Ros Deegan, CEO of @omasstx, about their journey and the impact of investment on life sciences. #ThePowerOf10

Publication Alert 🚨 Check out @C_Lutomski new paper in @NatureChemistry: Defining proteoform-specific interactions for drug targeting in a native cell signalling environment #MassSpec #TopDown #Native @KavliOxford @KavliFoundation @WolfsonCollege nature.com/articles/s4155…

In this new publication in Nature Chemistry, we show protein-ligand interactions can be identified at the proteoform level using samples derived from native cell environments. Access the full article here: shorturl.at/BRrUG #DrugDiscovery #MassSpec

We have, in collaboration with @KavliOxford , @UniofOxford and @thermofisher , developed a novel method that expands the capabilities of our core technology, OdyssION.
