The 2009 Meritorious Technology/Science Award is awarded to Paul Grieco and Ed Dratz
Edward Dratz, a chemistry and biochemistry professor and Paul Grieco, a Regent's professor in chemistry, jointly received MSU's Meritorious Technology/Science Award. It recognizes an MSU faculty member who has made at least one significant technological or scientific contribution that could be transferred or already has been transferred to the private sector.
Dratz is a leader in analytical, structural and mechanistic biochemistry. Grieco is a world-renowned expert in the field of organic synthesis. Over the past five years the two scientists have collaborated to develop enhanced tools in the field of proteomics with the design and synthesis of a new generation of water soluble fluorescent probe molecules called Zdyes. They are working with several Bozeman companies to develop additional tools for improved proteomic analysis and started a company, Zyde LLC, which is positioned to impact biomedicine and a large commercial biotech market.
