Prof. Gavin Wright
SAB Member
Gavin is bringing into ExEd the experience of combining production of difficult to express recombinant proteins at scale with large scale expression screening.
Bio
Gavin graduated from the University of Oxford with a degree in Biochemistry before studying for a D.Phil. at the Sir William Dunn School of Pathology. Following a postdoc at Cancer Research UK in London, and as a Group Leader at the Sanger Institute, he is currently a Professor at University of York. His research team have developed large-scale systematic approaches to identify novel receptor-ligand pairs that initiate intercellular signalling. Important contributions include identifying the receptors required for mammalian sperm-egg recognition and identifying a receptor that is critical for invasion of red blood cells by the malaria parasite.
