Michael A. Freitas works in analytical chemistry and molecular biology, using mass spectrometry and proteomics to study how proteins and their chemical modifications (like histone acetylation and DNA methylation marks) regulate gene expression, cell metabolism, and disease processes such as cancer. His work spans method development (e.g., new mass spectrometry and data-analysis tools) and applied biomedical questions including epigenetics, cancer metabolism, and forensic genetics. Prospective students would likely engage in interdisciplinary projects combining wet-lab proteomics/genomics experiments with computational data analysis.
