Lab Members - Jimmy Ytterberg
Dr. A. Jimmy Ytterberg joined the group as
post-doc in September 2006 after finishing his Ph.D. at Cornell
University (Prof. Klaas Jan van Wijk). He obtained his magister
examen
(Swedish equivalent of a MSc) in chemistry from Stockholm
university 2000 and enrolled in the graduate program in the department
of biochemistry at the same university spring 2000 to work with
Prof. van Wijk. When Prof van Wijk accepted a position in the
department of Plant Biology at Cornell University later that year,
Jimmy move together with the rest of the lab to NY and enrolled in the
graduate school at Cornell University. Jimmy's research at Cornell
focused on proteomics of the thylakoid membrane of Arabidopsis
thaliana.
His research at UCLA focuses on quantitative proteomics and protein characterization using biochemistry, isotope labeling and mass spectrometry.
