Genomics and proteomics: From genes to function: advances in applications of chemical and systems biology

Matthew Bogyo received his BSc degree in chemistry from Bates College in 1993 and a PhD in biochemistry from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1997. He became a Faculty Fellow at the University of California, San Francisco in 1998. In 2001, he moved to Celera Genomics to head the Department of Chemical Proteomics until 2003 when he made the transition back to academics as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Pathology at Stanford University. His research interests focus on the use of small molecules to study the functional roles of proteases in human diseases, with an emphasis on cancer and malaria.
