Bio
Dr. Thomas is a clinical chemist and a faculty member of the Advanced Research and Diagnostics Laboratory (ARDL) and a member of the Masonic Cancer Center. She is also the Associate Medical Director of the West Bank Laboratory. Motivated by the growing prevalence of mass spectrometry in the clinical laboratory, Thomas applies discovery and targeted proteomics methods to elucidate the biology of ovarian cancer and analyze proteins derived from alterations in cancer genomes and related biological processes. Dr. Thomas is a member of the graduate faculty of Molecular Pharmacology and Therapeutics (MPaT); Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, and Biophysics; and Microbiology, Immunology and Cancer Biology (MICaB).
