Henry Nguyen

Henry Nguyen has a wealth of experience in protein engineering. Henry began their career in 2009 as a Graduate Student at Yale University, where they cloned, expressed, and purified numerous host-HIV protein complexes for structural studies. In 2016, they moved to UCSF as a Postdoctoral Scholar, where they determined the 3.1 Å cryoEM structure of a light-activated enzyme bound to its small molecule substrate on a bilayer. In 2020, they joined Asher Biotherapeutics as a Senior Scientist I and Scientist II, where they developed expression and purification protocol for difficult, polymerizing ESCRT-III proteins for biochemical and biophysical assays.

Henry Nguyen attended Yale University from 2009 to 2015, where they earned a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry. Prior to that, they attended Carnegie Mellon University from 2005 to 2009, where they earned a Bachelor of Science (BS) in Biological Sciences and Chemistry.
