Jared Weaver

Scientist I

Hometown:

Cedar City, UT

Education:

Ph.D. in biophysical chemistry, Stanford University

Previous Experience:

Before insitro, I performed protein engineering, spectroscopy, and crystallography, to determine mechanisms of enzyme catalysis.

Responsibilities at insitro:

I measure protein biophysics, namely characterizing and validating potential drug candidates by measuring their binding affinity to protein drug targets of interest and determining binding mechanisms.

Other insitrocytes Describe Me As:

Meticulous, Diligent

Key Papers:
