James McCullagh

James McCullagh is Professor of Biological Chemistry and Director of the Mass Spectrometry Research Facility at the University of Oxford, Department of Chemistry. His research focuses on understanding the function of small molecules in biological, biomedical, and environmental systems, with particular emphasis on metabolism and metabolomics. His work involves the development of (bio)analytical chemistry techniques, especially mass spectrometry, with applications in chemical, biological, and medical research. He has authored or co-authored over 100 publications, including a Mass Spectrometry textbook. He lectures on analytical chemistry courses and supervises graduate and undergraduate students. He is also a section editor for the journal Cell Metabolism and an editorial board member for Scientific Reports.

James McCullagh is a Professor of Biological Chemistry at the University of Oxford, specializing in Mass Spectrometry, Systems biology, Metabolomics, Cell Chemistry, and Analytical Chemistry and methods. His research focuses on understanding metabolic processes in cellular systems, particularly through the application of advanced analytical techniques. McCullagh's work explores the role of metabolites in disease mechanisms, such as inflammatory responses and cancer, and investigates the interplay between metabolic pathways and cellular functions. His publications highlight the use of mass spectrometry for quantifying metabolites and analyzing biochemical processes in both human and microbial systems.
