Cameron Glasscock, Ph.D.
PI
I create new approaches for designing nucleic acid binding proteins and test them out for various applications in synthetic biology and therapeutics.
I did my postdoc training at University of Washington’s Institute for Protein Design in the lab of David Baker designing DNA binding proteins, and I earned my PhD from Cornell University where I was jointly advised by Julius Lucks and Matthew DeLisa. I spent the later years of my PhD as a visiting scholar in the Lucks lab at Northwestern University’s Center for Synthetic Biology. I earned my BS in Biological Engineering at Oregon State University.
Outside of lab, you’ll find me walking my Husky, cycling, marathon training, and finding good food.
Precious Castillo
PhD Student
I am a PhD student in the Biochemistry and Cell Biology (BCB) graduate program. I earned a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry from Texas Christian University. My undergraduate research project focused on investigating the effects of cancer-linked variants on protein-protein interactions.
Outside of lab, I enjoy reading books, watching TV shows, playing board games with friends, and spending time with my dogs.
