Expertise:

• Proteomics analysis, that is, identifying and quantifying the proteins active within a biological system
• Computational and bioinformatics approaches for investigating protein function
• Quantification of cell cycle proteins in yeast, recombinant protein production in mammalian cell lines, and identification of proteins mediating plant-bacterial interactions
• Structural pattern recognition algorithms to predict protein functions such as carbohydrate binding and antifreeze activity
• Evolution of protein function within homologous protein groups
