532 | Taking a Close Look at Protein Oxidation Using Mass Spectrometry


Listen Later

In this week's episode, hosts Anthony Cruz and Milan Mammen interview Evelyn MacKay-Barr, a third year PhD student in Physical/Analytical Chemistry. Evelyn is studying the effects of oxidation on protein structures and dynamics. Though her lab studies small model proteins, their findings have big implications for larger protein therapeutics! Tune in to learn how they use mass spectrometry and other techniques to study protein behaviour.

Evelyn, Anthony, and Milan also discuss finding the right research group for you and the importance of having a supportive research environment.
