Bio:
Dr. Devin Schweppe is an Associate Professor at the University of Washington in the Department of Genome Sciences. Dr. Schweppe began his research career working for Dr. Charles Lovett at Williams College and pursued doctoral work with Dr. Scott Gerber at Dartmouth Medical School, followed by postdoctoral work with Dr. James Bruce (UW) and Dr. Steven Gygi (Harvard Medical School). Dr. Schweppe’s research interests focus on the the interplay of chemical, cell, and systems biology. Through the implementation of biologically-aware mass spectrometry, Dr. Schweppe's group quantifies proteins as a readout for diverse cell states with broad interests spanning cell biology, developmental biology, protein-DNA interactions, protein-ligand interactions, pre-clinical proteomics, and the analysis of primary tissue samples. Complimenting the studies of biological systems, Dr. Schweppe's group develops computational tools for proteomics and applications to disseminate datasets to the research community. Tools include those for real-time instrument control (Nova, Helios, Corona, Orbiter) and large-scale databases (CysDB, XLinkDB, BioPlex, Oximouse). The Schweppe lab's work has been recognized with awards including: a Pew Biomedical Scholarship, an Andy Hill CARE Foundation Distinguished Researcher award, a W.M. Keck Award, an NIGMS R35 MIRA, and a Cancer Consortium New Investigator award.
