Jane E. Thomas-Oates (born 16 May 1960) is a British chemist who is an emeritus professor at the University of York. Her research has considered the development of mass spectrometry for biological applications including proteomics, metabolomics, and glycomics.
Thomas-Oates' parents were both teachers. Her father was a physical chemist before teaching science and her mother was also a botanist. [1] She has said that she can remember being excited by mass spectrometry during her chemistry lessons. [1] Thomas-Oates studied biochemistry at Imperial College London, where she remained for a doctorate with Anne Dell. Her doctoral research considered atom bombardment mass spectrometry of oligosaccharides and glycopeptides. [1] She then moved to the United States as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Colorado Boulder. She worked in the University of Colorado Complex Carbohydrate Research Center and the University of Georgia. [1]
In 1986, Thomas-Oates returned to Imperial College London.[ citation needed] Her research considered the development of mass spectrometry for biological applications. [1] She was appointed a Beit Memorial Research Fellow at the University of Dundee in 1989, where she spent two years before joining Utrecht University as a lecturer in mass spectrometry. [2] In Dundee, she studied the structures of glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchors, and in Utrecht she developed the first mass spectrometry technique to determine glycan attachment to glycoproteins. [1] In 1996, Thomas-Oates moved to University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology as a Senior Lecturer.[ citation needed] She moved to the University of York as a Research Chair in 2002. [1]
Thomas-Oates was made the British Mass Spectrometry Society lecturer in 2019. [3]
