Biography – Dr Matthew Child
Matthew studied for a PhD in molecular parasitology with Prof. Mike Blackman at the National Institute for Medical Research, London, UK. After his PhD, he worked as a post-doc in the chemical biology-focused laboratory of Prof. Matt Bogyo at Stanford University, California. Matthew’s group is currently based at Imperial College London, where he is funded as a Wellcome Trust and Royal Society Sir Henry Dale Fellow, and holds a proleptic appointment within the department of Life Sciences.
Matthew’s research seeks to understand how individual amino acids contribute to protein function in live cells, in rare disease, and during infections by old and emergent pathogens. His technology-led approach allows his team to do this at scale for allosteric sites, covalently druggable residues, sites of post-translational modification, and disease-associated missense variants
