About this Seminar

This seminar will describe the latest development of mass spectrometry tools to improve characterization of protein modifications. Applications will highlight work to improve analyses of glycoproteins, epigenetic modifications, and modifications that influence protein stability. Additionally how these modifications drive human disease such as cancer and neurological disorders will be discussed.
