Assistant Professor of Medicine

Biography 

Tim (Qiang) received his PhD at the University of California, Santa Barbara where was training in physical chemistry using mass spectrometry (Michael T. Bowers’ group). He received his postdoctoral training at Washington University, Department of Chemistry (Michael L. Gross’s group) where he extended his research interests to bioanalytical chemistry using biomedical MS and proteomics. Upon the completion of the training, he was hired by Mead Johnson Nutrition and established and led a proteomic lab working on human milk proteomics and vitamin D3 analysis. In 2015, he worked at Washington University School to Medicine, Division of Endocrinology, Metabolism & Lipid Research. His research interests further extended from experimental proteomics to computational proteomics. He has implemented several computational tools for data mining and informatics analysis of proteomics data. He has also developed the software, Mzion, for searches of proteomics data.
