Kejia Wu is a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Baker Lab at the Institute for Protein Design, University of Washington, where she develops methods to design and characterize binders for peptides and intrinsically disordered regions. Her work focuses on capturing transient, weak, and highly dynamic interactions, and on functionalizing designed binders to probe complex biological mechanisms. Kejia has contributed to high-impact publications advancing binder design for disordered targets and expanding the toolkit for studying structural ensembles. At the Summit, she will discuss biophysical strategies for characterizing IDPs and interpreting data when no single static structure exists.
