The Power List 2019 – Top 20

Vicki Wysocki
Professor and Ohio Eminent Scholar at the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry & Director of the Campus Chemical Instrument Center, Ohio State University, USA.
Research goal: To develop better ways of measuring large protein and nucleoprotein complexes by MS.
Best advice received: A few years before John Fenn won the Nobel Prize, he told me to “never look back, never second guess.” This happened as I moved from one position to another, but any time I started to doubt I’d made the right choice I thought of his advice and kept moving forward.
Nominator comment:“Vicki has a huge impact in fundamental analytics and fragmentation technologies; UVPD and SID were pioneered by her and her group.”
