‘Game-changing’ Alzheimer’s research by Northeastern professor is major beneficiary of $50 million grant 

Scientists at the Parallel Squared Technology Institute intend to use new techniques to significantly ramp up single-cell protein analysis of Alzheimer’s disease, which researchers suspect is caused by a buildup of abnormal proteins in and around brain cells.

Northeastern University proteomics researcher receives grant from Chan Zuckerberg Initiative to help map all cells in the human body to better understand cancer, diabetes, and other diseases

Nikolai Slavov, an assistant professor of bioengineering at Northeastern, has developed a data-driven technique to detect more than 2,000 proteins in a single cell. He says the method could be used to help scientists create new therapies to treat cancer, diabetes, and other diseases.

How this researcher’s risky idea could mean big things for regenerative medicine

Quantifying the proteins in a single cell has implications for cell biology, cancer treatments, and stem cell research. But so far, scientists have been able to identify fewer than 100 proteins in an individual cell. Nikolai Slavov, an assistant professor of bioengineering at Northeastern, has devised a method to quantify 10 times that many.
