STEM Tea | Investing in our students
In this episode of the STEM Tea podcast, host AJ Hinton is joined by two science educators who are striving to instill a love of science and a sense of belonging within K–12 students through outreach initiatives and programs.
Yelena Janumyan is a postdoctoral fellow at the Collaborative for STEM Education and Outreach at Vanderbilt University (TN, USA). Since receiving her PhD, Yelena has taught science and math in schools; however, she is now turning her attention back to research.
At the time of recording, Zachary Conley was also a postdoctoral fellow at the Collaborative for STEM Education and Outreach at Vanderbilt University. Before joining the Collaborative, he was working toward his PhD in biochemistry and molecular biology from the Baylor College of Medicine (TX, USA).
At the Collaborative, Yelena and Zachary were co-instructors for the Day of Discovery Program, an initiative for middle school students to participate in a research-based STEM curriculum one school day per week.

LC–MS/MS for quantitation of protein biomarkers
In this podcast, Director of GLP bioanalysis Lan Li reviews immunoassays versus mass spectrometry-based methods as tools for protein biomarker quantitation. Focusing specifically on mass spectrometry approaches, Lan explores various methodologies, such as top-down, middle-down and bottom-up, as well as the sample preparation procedures required. Lan concludes by reviewing the current challenges impacting protein biomarker quantification and how QPS Holdings, LLC is developing solutions to overcome them.
