Martin H. Wühr

Martin H. Wühr is an Associate Professor of Molecular Biology and a member of the Lewis-Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics at Princeton University. He leads the Wuhr Lab, focusing on quantitative proteomics to understand cellular organization. His work investigates how molecules self-organize into organelles and cells, particularly studying nuclear-cytoplasmic proteome partitioning and its impact on biological function.

Research employs mass spectrometry-based proteomics combined with computational, biochemical, and imaging approaches, using models like human tissue cells and Xenopus laevis embryos. Key contributions include analyzing protein localization dynamics during embryogenesis and developing novel proteomic methodologies.

Recent publications highlight advancements in multiplexed proteomics, nuclear import mechanisms, and microbial nutrient interactions. Awards and grants are not explicitly listed, but his lab’s technical innovations indicate significant field impact. Advising and lab management details are not provided, though collaborations with institutions like MIT and Harvard suggest active academic engagement.
