Dan Raftery is a Medical Education and Research Endowed Professor at the University of Washington, School of Medicine, and Professor at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center in Seattle, WA. Dr. Raftery received his undergraduate degree from Harvard College and PhD from UC Berkeley. He was previously Professor of Chemistry in the Analytical Division at Purdue University, where his group began its research in metabolomics in 2003. Dr. Raftery moved to the University of Washington in 2012, where he founded the Northwest Metabolomics Research Center, which supports a number of other Centers at UW, including the Nathan Shock Center.
Dr. Raftery’s current research program is focused on the development of new analytical methods in metabolomics and their application to a range of clinical and basic science studies related to metabolic alterations. His group uses advanced mass spectrometry and NMR methods to identify early biomarkers and metabolic risk factors for numerous cancers and other diseases, and to explore systems biology in cells and mitochondria.
