About Tra D Nguyen
Ph.D. in Analytical Chemistry with 1 year of industrial experience in biotech, preparing and contributing to Phase II FDA applications- Specialize in single cell proteomics, metabolomics using LC-MS and Single-probe single cell mass spectrometry (SCMS)->5 years of hands-on experience in method development, optimization, and troubleshooting for LC-MS and ESI-MS- Presented orally on single-cell studies in infectious diseases, and single cell multi-omics studies in CRISPR knockout cells at the 2020 and 2023 American Society for Mass Spectrometry (ASMS) international conference, respectively, to an audience of global attendees- Proficient in bottom-up proteomics LC-MS, including label free quantification, and protein sample preparation- Led projects in single cell omics research (proteomics, metabolomics, lipidomics), demonstrating expertise in analyzing large and small molecules within complex samples (e.g, cancer cells, gene-edited cells, soil). Proficient in the extraction of large/small molecules (e.g, proteins, metabolites, lipids, DNA), cell culture, CRISPR-Cas9 and molecular biology skills (PCR, Western blotting, sequencing)- Skilled in mass spectrometry maintenance, experiment design, data acquisition, data analysis, and manuscript preparation- Proven track record in project management, leading technical discussions in project-related meetings, working independently, and collaborating across disciplines with mass spectrometrists, biochemists, biologists, and Education: Tra has a Ph.D. in Analytical Chemistry from the University of Oklahoma (OU). In her research lab (Dr. Zhibo Yang\'s lab), her research expertise lies on single cell omics research (proteomics, metabolomics, lipidomics), utilizing Single-probe single cell mass spectrometry technique (Probe ESI-MS). Before joining OU in 2018, Tra had worked in Dr. Richard D. Sheardy\'s lab for 3.5 years to study the interrelationship of pH, temperature and K+ concentration in the transformation of DNA i-motif structures at Texas Woman\'s University while earning her B.S. degree in Biochemistry.Best regards,Tra D Nguyen, PhD
