Karl Clauser

Karl Clauser is an internationally recognized leader in proteomics software development and phosphoproteomics. He has applied advanced separations methods, mass spectrometry and informatics to characterize protein pathways, understand the mechanism of action of drug candidates, define biomarkers of disease and drug effect, and build understanding of protein targets and their roles in disease in proteomics groups at Genentech and Millennium Pharmaceuticals prior to joining the Broad. As part of his doctoral studies he co-authored Protein Prospector, a widely used proteomics software package accessible freely over the Web. He also the developer of SpectrumMill, acknowledged as one of the three most powerful software packages for proteomics data analysis.
