Kinase-impaired BTK mutations are susceptible to clinical-stage BTK and IKZF1/3 degrader NX-2127

Covalent Modifiers

Covalent and noncovalent inhibitors of BTK have revolutionized the treatment of these cancers. Therefore, understanding mechanisms by which acquired mutations in BTK confer drug resistance and developing new therapies to overcome resistance are critically important.

Women in STEM with Juliet Williams

Drug Target Review

This laid the groundwork for my career in drug discovery using novel modalities like small molecule inhibitors, antibodies, RNA interference (RNAi) and, currently, small molecule protein degraders – which are opportunities to change how we think about medicines. I’ve already had a number of ‘rocking chair’ moments in my career.
