Joshua Coon is a professor of chemistry and biomolecular chemistry and the inaugural holder of the Thomas and Margaret Pyle Chair at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, and an affiliate of the Morgridge Institute for Research.[1]
Coon develops scientific instruments to measure molecules in living systems. He focuses specifically on the use of mass spectrometry to measure the molecular mass of biomolecules,[1][2] and its application to proteomics.[3][4] Joshua Coon, along with John Syka, developed electron-transfer dissociation (ETD) while working as a postdoctoral student in Donald Hunt's lab at the University of Virginia.[5]
Early life and education
[edit | edit source]Coon was born in Mount Pleasant, Michigan. Coon earned his B.Sc. from Central Michigan University in 1988. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Florida in 2002, where he worked with Willard Harrison.[6]
Career
[edit | edit source]Coon was a postdoctoral student in Donald Hunt's lab at the University of Virginia from 2002 to 2005. There Joshua Coon and John Syka developed electron-transfer dissociation (ETD).[7]
In 2005, Coon joined the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He became an associate professor in 2010, and a professor in 2012.[7]
