Research
Biosensors
Designing proteins to be used in platforms with exceptional sensitivity and selectivity towards established biomarkers for aggressive forms of cancer (in collaboration with Dr. David Hickey)
Drug Discovery
Engineering high affinity proteins to precisely modulate select GPCRs
Protein Engineering
Evolving strong binders with high specificity using a strategic collection of small, stable protein scaffolds (e.g. affibody, Gp2, monobody, nanobody)
Protein Docking
Crafting computational simulations to improve our ability to design libraries by providing insight to how proteins interact
Protein Design
Leveraging language models and statistical clustering through machine learning-assisted sequence-function mapping enables the discovery and design of improved and de novo proteins
