Congratulations to Daniel Brush, who defended his Ph.D. work "Development of chemoproteomic methods for profiling the conformational dynamics of protein kinases" on March 11, 2026. Dan was a student in Professor Dustin Maly’s research group, where he built a proteomic platform that profiles ligand-bound kinase conformations using reactivity profiling, allowing us to uncover druggable pockets. He has accepted a scientist position with Arzeda in Seattle, where he will be working on analytical chemistry and method development. Dan is extremely grateful for the support he's received during his time at UW, and is excited to continue to learn and grow as a scientist.
