Biography

 Lukas graduated at the ETH Zurich in biochemistry/molecular biology. For his PhD he joined the groups of Michael Hengartner and Ruedi Aebersold and received his degree in 2009 from the University of Zurich. He published key bioinformatic papers in the field of shotgun and targeted proteomics. In his research he focused on the control of error rates and error propagation. This lead to the development of mProphet, the first tool to transfer these concepts to targeted proteomics. After completing his PhD he was a PostDoc for one year and in parallel started at Biognosys, working on professionalizing the software development and applying it to novel acquisition techniques such as SWATH.
