Selected Mentorship, Service, and Diversity Outreach
Co-Chair, Human Glycoproteomics Initiative Study; 2021 – present
The Human Glycoproteomics Initiative (HGI) was established in 2017 and aims to increase the understanding of the functional significance of glycosylation. This can only be achieved when the proteomics community has well integrated analytical and informatics tools available to accurately sequence glycopeptides. Dr. Malaker was invited by Morten Thaysen-Anderson, Nicki Packer, and Daniel Kolarich to lead the second HGI study, where we will be comparing across glycoproteomic software developers to determine accuracy and consistency across programs.
Nominated USA Representative at the International Glycoconjugate Organization IGO; 2022 – present
As the IGO Representative, Dr. Malaker concentrates on establishing an efficient communication channel between the Society for Glycobiology (SFG) and IGO leaderships and represents the interests of the SFG in the IGO community. This involves attending IGO conferences, business meetings, and reporting to the SFG Executive Committee or Board of Directors on the state of affairs.
