Biography
Dr. David Wishart (PhD Yale, 1991) is a Professor in the Departments of Biological Sciences and Computing Science at the University of Alberta. He is also a senior research officer and the Program Coordinator for the Metabolomic Sensors Program at the NRC’s National Institute for Nanotechnology (NINT). He has been with the University of Alberta since 1995 and has published more than 250 articles in various peer reviewed journals. His research interests span many areas including transplant biology, nanobiology and metabolomics. From 2006-2009, Dr. Wishart led the “Human Metabolome Project” (HMP), a multi-university, multi-investigator project that catalogued all of the known metabolites in human tissues and biofluids. Using advanced methods in NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, multi-dimensional chromatography and machine learning Dr. Wishart and his colleagues identified or found evidence for more than 18500 endogenous metabolites. This information has been archived on a freely accessible web-resource called the Human Metabolome Database (HMDB). The methods and ideas developed for the HMP have helped lay the foundation for a number of clinical metabolomics projects currently being pursued in his lab. These include studies of several cancer, organ function and organ transplant biomarkers Dr. Wishart has published more than 40 papers in the field of metabolomics and currently directs the Metabolomics Innovation Centre (TMIC).
