Caroline DeHart
Caroline DeHart

Frederick National Laboratory for Cancer Research

8560 Progress Drive, Frederick, MD 21701

Phone: 240-529-4109

Email: Caroline DeHart

Research Interests: Dr. DeHart’s research interests focus on the characterization of intact protein forms (proteoforms) and novel post-translational modifications (PTMs) of key oncoproteins by targeted top-down mass spectrometry. Her group also employs a combination of global, targeted, quantitative, top-down, native, and crosslinking-based proteomic workflows to support RAS Initiative collaborative projects with the goal of better understanding (and inhibiting) RAS-dependent signaling in human cancer.

Phone: 951-827-3958

Email: Ryan Julian

Research Interests: Current research projects in the Julian lab include the top-down analysis of proteins by radical-directed dissociation (RDD) to obtain both sequence and structural information. We also develop and apply methods for analyzing peptides with isomerized residues in complex biological samples, including protocols incorporating DIA, RDD, UVPD, ion mobility, and liquid chromatography.

Email: Franklin Leach

Research Interest: The leach lab at the University of Georgia focuses its research activities on the determination of molecular structure by FTMS in the context of environmental health with emphasis areas ranging from the interaction of emerging contaminants with natural organic matter and biota in wetland ecosystems to how the metabolic profile of organisms is affected by environmental exposures. The primary goal of these wide-ranging activities is to enable a more detailed understanding of environmental interactions and make a positive impact on public health.
