Lab Members - Sheng Yin

Sheng

Sheng Yin is from a small (not speaking in terms of population) northern China city, DaLian. He earned his Bachelor of Science degree in biochemistry from UCLA. After working in the UCLA proteomic facility as a research technician, he joined the Loo Lab in 2003 as a graduate student. His research involves the development and application of electrospray ionization mass spectrometry for the study of noncovalently-bound macromolecular complexes and their interactions with ligands.
