Happy Valentine's Day to our talented and hard-working students, trainees and post docs past and present courtesy of the Northwestern #DanceMarathon! hashtag#ValentinesDay hashtag#sciencerockstars hashtag#thefutureofbiomedicine hashtag#Northwesternstudents hashtag#purplepride

Meet Ryan McClure platform leader Chan Zuckerberg Biohub Network Chicago & alumnus of our graduate training program. Ryan's team aims to uncover the common & unique markers of #inflammation with data-rich insights that reveal the complexities of the immune system. bit.ly/41mBAGL #proteomics

A new study by CLP member Vadim Backman reveals how the human genome produces instructions for creating proteins and cells!

Calling all Northwestern University undergraduates looking for #research opportunities, applications are now available on our website for the 2025 CLP Summer Scholars Program and 2025 Lambert Fellows Program. Applications are due by April 15th. bit.ly/3XuI1p4

CLP we’re proud to have Jody Hirsh, PhD, as part of our team. As a senior research administrator, Jody is the unsung hero who ensures that researchers can focus on the science, not the bureaucracy. bit.ly/4hfeO8J

Small proteins can be more complex than they look! We know proteins fluctuate between different conformations- but how much? How does it vary protein to protein? Can highly stable domains have low stability segments? Állan Ferrari experimentally tested >5,000 domains to find out!

A huge thank you to Alexander Adibekian, a leading expert in #Chemistry University of Illinois Chicago for delivering an incredible talk on chemoproteomics-enabled target identification and degrader discovery to our trainees! 🙌

Friends, you won't want to miss this!

Exciting news! CLP scientists, Richard Silverman and William Klein reported a significant breakthrough for treating #Alzheimer's disease in a new animal study—an #ALS drug that effectively treats Alzheimer’s. Grants from NIH and CLP supported the study. bit.ly/4ln9kMj

🚀 BREAKTHROUGHS START HERE. From developing new drugs that show promise against ALS and Alzheimer's disease to developing new routes to treat cancer, Chemistry of Life Processes Institute researchers are pushing boundaries that shape the world. #Northwestern

Our trainees rose to the challenge—and nailed it. With expert coaching from communication facilitator Heather Barnes, each student delivered a dynamic 3–5 minute research talk without a single slide, using the tools they developed during our 4-part science communication workshop.

Congratulations to CLP member Ali Shilatifard, PhD, for his election to the National Academy of Sciences. His tremendous impact on cancer treatments and the fundamental understanding of epigenetics is undeniable. bit.ly/4jw4ESR Shilatifard Lab

In today's The Analytical Scientist, Neil Kelleher calls for a Human Proteoform Project to bring protein-level precision to medicine — just like the Human Genome Project did for DNA. bit.ly/4iJA6vE #Proteomics #PrecisionMedicine The Analytical Scientist

👏 Shoutout to Julian Novin, CLP Lambert Fellow & Northwestern junior, for winning Top Poster in Chemistry & Environmental Sciences at #CAURS! His research on ALS treatments with the Silverman Group is paving the way for new therapeutics. 🔬🔥 #STEM #ALS #UndergradResearch

🧠 New hope for #arthritis & aging-related diseases: Researchers at Northwestern & Stanford Medicine developed a groundbreaking MRI technique to see senescent "zombie" cells in the body—for the first time. A major leap for diagnostics & anti-aging therapies. bit.ly/43gDrNi

Way to go Frank! We love it when our graduate trainees are recognized for their hard work!

Today, as we celebrate #NationalProteoformDay, we're thinking about this 2021 publication in Science Advances that introduced the world to the Human Proteoform Project #HPfP. Understanding #proteoforms is essential to understanding our biology and harnessing it for the better for

What if we could directly measure proteins in single brain cells—no labels, no tricks? 🧠 Northwestern scientists just did it, profiling 10,000+ cells using #scPiMS, a breakthrough in single-cell proteomics. Neil Kelleher bit.ly/3S7wybV #MassSpec #Neuroscience

🎉 Big congrats to CLP Director Dr. Neil Kelleher on receiving the 2025 #StreckAward! His pioneering work on #proteoforms is reshaping how we understand human biology and disease. Learn more about the Human Proteoform Project → bit.ly/43LtyaI #Proteomics Neil Kelleher

What comes after launching the first public Internet software company? For #Northwestern alum Tim Krauskopf: startups, semis & science. Now on CLP’s Exec Advisory Board, he’s helping drive real-world impact—from Alzheimer’s to cancer cures. bit.ly/4kCznOC
