Who Are We?
Brittany D.M. Hodges Ph.D.
Dr. Hodges has a Ph.D. in Analytical Chemistry from Purdue University. Dr. Hodges' research interests include mass spectrometry, chromatography, and applications of these instruments to biological systems and gas-phase ion chemistry. After completing her Ph.D. she did a post-doctoral research appointment in pharmacology studying lipids via liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. Dr. Hodges managed an academic core facility research lab performing LC-MS analysis on a wide variety of samples for several years. After twelve years at the bench, she founded Inkwell Scientific LLC.
Dr. Hodges has experience writing and editing journal articles, grants, creating figures for articles and creating slides and posters for presentations at national and international meetings. She is the 2018-2019 President of the Rocky Mountain Chapter of the American Medical Writers Association, and has previously served as VP of the Colorado Biological Mass Spectrometry Society (CBMSS).
