When her ovarian tumor symptoms were misdiagnosed, UC Davis researcher Elizabeth Neumann trusted her instincts and it changed the course of her work. Now, she’s using advanced imaging and mass spectrometry to improve early detection of ovarian cancer, while also speaking out about the challenges women face in healthcare.
Inside a room on the fourth floor of the Chemistry Annex, a mechanical leviathan helps UC Davis scientists unravel the mysteries of chemical biology. Developed by Bruker Scientific with the assistance of Assistant Professor of Chemistry Elizabeth Neumann, the timsTOF fleX system enables the high-throughput chemical analysis of single organelles to whole body systems. Check out five of our favorite images from the Neumann Lab!
Imaging is imperative to molecular biology. To understand human health and disease, scientists need a molecular window into the processes underlying our biology.
A chemist studying the cellular and molecular architecture underlying neurological diseases recently received an Incentives for Large Grant Award from the College of Letters and Science at UC Davis. The Incentives for Large Grant Awards program provides faculty with up to $80,000 in support over two years to pursue large grants of over $1 million.
