Agilent Technologies Inc has named Gary J Patti, associate professor, department of chemistry arts and science, Washington University, St Louis, the recipient of the prestigious 2017 Agilent Early Career Professor Award.
He was selected for his contributions to the detection of metabolomic changes in whole organisms and their utility for drug discovery, early detection, characterisation and surveillance of cancer and other diseases and conditions.
Using state-of-the-art mass spectrometers, coupled with cutting-edge metabolomic technologies, Patti’s lab takes a systems-level approach to the study of comprehensive metabolism and identification of specific pathways that are altered in connection with particular phenotypes.
“Agilent is pleased to recognise and support the work of Patti, who is developing and implementing experimental approaches that advance metabolomic analysis from the lab bench to translational applications in human disease,” said Jack Wenstrand, director, university relations and external research, Agilent.
“Metabolism is one of the most exciting areas in biochemical research. We are honoured to have one of the world’s best in metabolomics here in our department,” said William Buhro, chairman, department of chemistry and George E Pake professor in arts and science, Washington University, St Louis.
The annual Agilent Early Career Professor Award was established in 2008. Through this award, the company seeks to recognise the achievements of academic researchers in the initial stages of their careers and to support and develop strong collaborative relationships with them at the beginning of their professional lives.
This accolade underscores Agilent’s commitment to furthering research through the company’s products and services, financial support and collaborative engagement by Agilent scientists and engineers.
