About

Ryan McBride is a researcher whose work sits at the intersection of biochemistry, molecular biology, and microarray technology, with a particular focus on glycan biology and peptide-based diagnostic tools. His contributions have advanced the scientific community's ability to study molecular recognition events with greater accessibility and precision. McBride's most notable work includes the development of low-cost peptide microarrays designed to map continuous antibody epitopes, a contribution that has garnered 12 citations and represents a significant step toward making high-throughput immunological screening more affordable and scalable. This work, first published in 2015 and revisited in 2022, demonstrates his sustained commitment to refining these methodologies over time. Equally impactful is his earlier research on the production and application of glycan microarrays, which explores how glycans — essential biomolecules involved in cell communication, growth, motility, and development — interact with binding proteins. This foundational work provides researchers with powerful tools to decode protein-glycan specificity, with implications spanning immunology, cancer biology, and infectious disease research. Through his interdisciplinary approach, McBride has established himself as a thoughtful innovator dedicated to democratizing complex biomolecular research tools for the broader scientific community.
