The Metabolomics Team

Dr. Taylor is a Research Specialist in the Metabolomics Core Facility, having joined the team in 2023. With a strong background in analytical chemistry, Dr. Taylor’s previous experience includes developing MS/MS dissociation methods to differentiate isomeric carbohydrates and utilizing LC-MS for the quantification of small molecules, such as vitamins, amino acids, and antibiotics, extracted from consumer nutraceutical products. Dr. Taylor holds a Ph.D. in Analytical Chemistry and an M.S. in Organic Chemistry, both from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Before joining the Metabolomics Core Facility, she gained significant experience in the nutraceutical and supplement testing industry, where she focused on quality control and analysis of health-related products. Her expertise lies in the application of mass spectrometry and liquid chromatography techniques for the analysis of complex biochemical compounds. Anna is passionate about leveraging these methods to advance the understanding of metabolic processes and to contribute to the development of novel analytical techniques for diverse scientific applications.
