Our research involves applying mass spectrometry-based technologies to perform molecular phenotyping at the population level. This work entails the development of both LC/MS and GC/MS methods for the quantification of lipids and other metabolites. A major focus of the lab also centers on developing the associated bioinformatics approaches including pathway analysis and network construction as well as multivariate statistical methods for integration of 'omics-based data structures.

Lab news

Two PostDoc Positions available

We are now recuriting two PostDocs, one in lipid mediator biology and one in urinary markers of lung disease

New paper published

New lab paper suggests that mild asthma is metabolically distinct from both moderate and severe asthma, and steroid treatment affects metabolism. 

New sample manager

The lab has just purchased the Extrahera automation system from Biotage for solid phase extraction (SPE)
