Tianwei Shen joins the lab!
We welcome Tianwei Shen to join the Medicinal Chemistry Graduate Program and our lab! Excited to have you here, Tianwei!
SLOS R01 awarded!
Our NIH R01 proposal on Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) was awarded for five years! In this project, we will investigate the role of 7-dehydrocholesterol-derived oxysterols in neurodevelopment of SLOS. Congratulations, team!
Drug CCS paper accepted to Analytical Chemistry!
Our paper on the measurement of collision cross sections (CCS) of over 1400 drug and drug-like molecules using traveling wave IM-MS was accepted to Analytical Chemistry! Congratulations to Kelly and Dylan, and our collaborators at the Department of Chemistry, Kim Davidson and Matt Bush! Great team effort!
Our collaborative work with the Totah lab on epoxidation of arachidonic acid was published in FRBM!
Our collaborative work titled: “Enzymatic and Free Radical Formation of Cis- and Trans- Epoxyeicosatrienoic Acids In Vitro and In Vivo” in collaboration with the Totah Lab was accepted for publication in the journal Free Radical Biology and Medicine. This is the first demonstration that both trans and cis- epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) can be formed from arachidonic acid under free radical oxidation condition.
NSF Grant Awarded!
Our project “Mechanisms of Peroxyl Radical Addition Reactions” was funded by the National Science Foundation for three years! This project will investigate the fundamental chemistry of lipid peroxidation! Thanks to our members who have contributed to this project, Andrew Dinh, David Lee, and David Kennedy, and congratulations to all!
Welcome Ryan Seguin and Congratulate him on receiving EP/T postdoctoral training grant!
We welcome Ryan Seguin, a UW Med Chem product, to join our lab as a postdoctoral fellow! And congratulations to Ryan on receiving his Environmental Pathology/Toxicology training grant to start his new position! Way to go, Ryan!
Welcome Amy Li to join our lab!
Great to have you back, Amy!
Libin, Kelly, and Dylan attended ASMS
The Xu lab and colleagues from Med Chem attended ASMS at Indianapolis last week (June 04-08). It was a fun meeting!
