Northwestern University’s Chemistry of Life Processes Institute will host the second International Top-Down Proteomics Symposium which will be held in Chicago, IL, October 3-5, 2023. The Symposium, a Consortium for Top-Down Proteomics event, will gather the global community to present and discuss the latest […]
Chemistry of Life Processes Institute (CLP) director Neil L. Kelleher and members of the CLP and Northwestern Proteomics team welcomed U.S. Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky from the 9th District of Illinois to Silverman Hall today to discuss the promise and potential of the Human Proteoform […]
Northwestern scientists are leading the charge to sequence proteins the way the Human Genome Project sequenced genes and DNA. A recent study in Science confirms they are on to something big. Neil Kelleher, PhD, has been weighing proteins since 1999, […]
Setting audacious goals for technology innovation is a critical component of the Human Proteoform Project, a $1.3 billion movement to weigh and characterize every protein variation, (called proteoforms) in the human body. A new technology announced today, co-developed by Northwestern’s […]
Eight years ago, an international team of researchers proposed that the term “proteoform” be adopted to describe the vast number of forms of protein products from our genes—including changes due to genetic variations, alternative RNA splicing, and post-translational […]
This episode of Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine’s Breakthroughs Podcast features Neil Kelleher, PhD, director of Northwestern Proteomics and Chemistry of Life Processes Institute. Millions of molecular proteins are swimming through our body’s cells and many studies […]
