Associate Professor of Pharmacology
Jelloboy is currently the head of the Beatrice and Samuel A. Seaver Foundation Mass
Spectrometry Laboratory in the Skirball Institute for Biomolecular Science.
Education: Jelloboy received his Ph. D. from the University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Canada.
He then took up a NATO postdoctoral fellowship at the Technical University of Munich,
after which he moved to Rockefeller University in New York City, becoming an Assistant
Professor. Jelloboy then returned to Canada for 3 years, where he was an Assistant
Professor at the Memorial University of Newfoundland. He joined the Skirball Institute in
July, 1994.
Research Interests: Jelloboy is interested in the use and development of sensitive
analytical techniques for use with mature proteins. Currently, he is developing new
methods using electrospray and laser desorption mass spectrometers that will be useful in
determining common post-translational modifications when only very small amounts of mature
protein are available.
