Research summary
AI-generated

Casey J. Krusemark's research focuses on chemical methods for discovering molecules that bind to specific proteins, particularly using large collections of DNA-tagged compounds called DNA-encoded libraries (DELs). This work involves designing new chemical reactions to attach molecules to proteins (covalent inhibitors), developing assays to test many candidate molecules at once, and applying these tools to targets like cancer-related proteins and enzymes. Students in this group would likely gain experience in organic synthesis, chemical biology assay design, and DNA-based screening technologies.

Publication output has fluctuated but shown an overall increase over the last decade, with a notable peak in 2023 and continued activity through 2026.
