Pioneers in Biomedical Research Seminar: Our Mass Spectrometry Screening Studies in the Mouse and Human Hearts in Health and Disease
Date: April 26, 2024
Time: 11 a.m. - 12 p.m.
About this Seminar
In this talk, Dr. Gramolini will present his lab's integrative mass spectrometry-based strategies allowing for quantitative global proteomic and phospho-proteomic surveys of human ischemic and non-ischemic heart failure tissues and mouse specimens in normal and diseased context. The team initially focused on cardiac membrane proteins and identified a series of understudied abundant membrane proteins in the myocyte.
