Taylor Zhang Joins LCGC’s Editorial Advisory Board

LCGC Magazine is pleased to announce the addition of Taylor Zhang to its editorial advisory board.

Zhang is a principal scientist and group leader in protein analytical chemistry at Genentech in South San Francisco, where he has worked since 2006. Prior to his work with Genentech, Zhang was a research specialist and senior analytical biochemist at Dow Chemical. He has more than ten years of experience in bioprocess development and has authored more than 20 publications in the field of bioanalytical chemistry.

Zhang’s research interests involve using different separation techniques for therapeutic protein characterization, and developing methods for the quality control system. He and his group are responsible for analytical characterization, method development, and technical transfers for clinical and commercial products, and for evaluation and implementation of new analytical techniques into these clinical and commercial control systems of therapeutic protein drugs.

He received his PhD in analytical chemistry in 2000 from Iowa State University (Ames, Iowa), where his research focused on separation methods, primarily high throughput capillary electrophoresis coupled with on-line sample preparation.
