My main areas of research are in the areas of protein chemistry, proteomics, proteolysis, and proteolytic enzymes, with emphasis on proteome quantification and the understanding protein dynamics on a global, proteome wide scale and of developing relevant methods in intact animals and complex systems. I am the ‘reporting PI’ for the CoPY project. I am Chair of BBSRC Bioscience Skills and Careers Strategy Panel and member of Council of the Biochemical Society. From April 2012 to March 2016 I have a 50% role as Royal Society Industrial Fellow, working with Waters on approaches to handling the dimensional complexity of the proteome.
