PLATO establishes a novel national mass spectrometry imaging platform for biomolecular profiling of tissues and microbial communities and it rejuvenates the Danish functional proteomics research infrastructure.
PLATO is a large and costly initiative across six partner institutions, with major centres at SDU and KU and associated platforms at AU, AAU, DTU and OUH.
PLATO includes internationally leading top-researchers in biological mass spectrometry and functional proteomics and will directly support more than 400 researchers in academia and industry in Denmark.
PLATO is a distributed research infrastructure accessible for all interested users via a single point of entry.
