About
Mostafa Zarei is a leading figure in analytical biochemistry, specializing in the structural characterization of complex lipids, particularly glycosphingolipids and gangliosides. His pioneering work has significantly advanced mass spectrometry-based lipidomics, enabling high-throughput, automated analysis of these critical biomolecules. Zarei’s major contributions include the development of fully-automated chip-based nanoelectrospray tandem mass spectrometry for analyzing human hippocampus gangliosides, a method that has garnered 49 citations for its innovation in neuroscience lipid profiling. He also established an automated normal phase nano HPLC/MALDI-MS platform for separating and identifying neutral and acidic glycosphingolipids, cited 26 times for its robustness in glycolipid analysis. These techniques have been instrumental in understanding the role of gangliosides in brain function and disease. Zarei’s work exemplifies the integration of automation and high-resolution mass spectrometry, providing researchers with reproducible, sensitive tools for lipidomics. His achievements underscore his impact on the field, offering foundational methods that continue to drive discoveries in neurochemistry and biomarker identification.
