Dr. Ling Han (ling.han@ualberta.ca)

B.Sc., Chemistry, Nanjing University, China, 2007
M.Sc., Chemistry, Nanjing University, China, 2010
Ph.D., Chemistry, University of Alberta, 2015
Postdoctoral Fellow in Klassen group since September 2015

Ling is mainly focusing on investigating the mechanism of protein-glycolipid interactions, and the influence of membrane environments on the interactions, also he is interested in developing mass spectrometry based methods for small biomolecules (e.g. glycolipids) quantitation
