Rudolf Aebersold (better known as Ruedi Aebersold born September 12, 1954 [1]) is a Swiss biologist, regarded as a pioneer in the fields of proteomics and systems biology. He has primarily researched techniques for measuring proteins in complex samples, in many cases via mass spectrometry. He is probably best known as one of the inventors of the Isotope-Coded Affinity Tag (ICAT) technique for proteomics, a technique for measuring the relative quantities of proteins in one sample relative to another sample by using tags containing stable isotopes of different masses.[2][3][4][5][6]

Ruedi Aebersold is Professor of Systems biology at the Institute of Molecular Systems Biology (IMSB) in ETH Zurich.[7][8] He was one of the founders of the Institute for Systems Biology in Seattle, Washington, and previously had a lab group at this institution.

He is co-founder and advisor to ProteoMediX[9] and Biognosys.[10]

Honors and Awards

  • HUPO Award (2005) [1]
  • Buchner Medal (2006) [1]
  • In recognition of his contribution to the field of protein sciences and proteomics the Association of Biomolecular Resource Facilities (ABRF) selected him for the ABRF 2008 Award.[1]
  • Herbert A. Sober Lectureship 2010 [11]
  • Otto Naegeli Prize 2010 [11][12]
  • Thomson Medal Award 2012 [13]
  • ranked #1 on the 2015 list of "most influential people in the analytical sciences" (by the Analytical Scientist) [14]
