Alice Ting is Professor of Genetics, Biology, and by courtesy, Chemistry at Stanford University. Before joining Stanford in 2016, Alice was a professor of Chemistry at MIT. She received her training at Harvard University (working with EJ Corey), UC Berkeley (PhD with Peter Schultz) and UCSD (postdoc with Roger Tsien). Alice’s work lies at the interface of chemistry and biology and the molecular technologies she has developed, including enzyme-catalyzed proximity labeling, have been widely adopted in cell biology and neuroscience to study organelle proteomes and protein interaction networks. She has received the NIH Pioneer Award, the Arthur Cope Scholar Award, and the McKnight Technological Innovations in Neuroscience Award among other prizes. Alice is a Chan Zuckerberg Biohub - San Francisco investigator, elected member of both the US National Academy of Sciences and National Academy of Medicine, and Honorary fellow of the Chinese Chemical Society.
