We are honored to announce that Dr. J. Jean Cui, a National Academy of Engineering member, will visit BioTReC and deliver a lecture on “Understanding Protein Dynamics for Structure-based Drug Design: Design Stories of Crizotinib, Lorlatinib and Repotrectinib” in NBRP on July 22, 2024.
Dr. J. Jean Cui, a renowned oncology drug designer, invented three FDA-approved medicines. She co-founded BlossomHill Therapeutics, Inc., and was the Scientific Founder of Turning Point Therapeutics, Inc. (TP). TP, under her leadership, went public and was acquired for $4.1 billion. At Pfizer, she pioneered Crizotinib and Lorlatinib. Her innovations led to accolades like election to the National Academy of Engineering and the National Inventor of the Year Award in 2024, significantly advancing cancer treatment.
Join us to explore cutting-edge kinase drug design! Learn how Crizotinib, Lorlatinib, and Repotrectinib tackle cancer drug resistance through innovative protein dynamics insights.
