Exciting recent advance: We are making great progress towards developing methods for 3Dproteomics and the application of these methods to studies of Alzheimer’s disease and cancer.
Eureka moment: We were working on an integrated LC/LC method 25 years ago that combined strong cation exchange and reversed phase particles in the same column. There was an “oh wow” moment when we flowed the 80 percent acetonitrile buffer across and column and observed that peptides were retained on the SCX phase.
