Grant: Canada Research Chairs

University of Alberta

$200,000.00

Analytical Chemistry

FY 2017-18

Summary
This research program focuses on developing analytical mass spectrometry for proteomics and metabolomics applications. Proteomics and metabolomics involve cohesive studies of all proteins (the proteome) or all metabolites (the metabolome) present in a biological system. They play an increasingly important role in biosciences, from fundamental studies of biological functions to discovery of accurate and precise disease biomarkers. Advances in both fields are being driven largely by the introduction of new analytical technologies. We propose to develop highly sensitive mass spectrometric techniques for comprehensive proteome and metabolome analysis with high specificity and throughput.
