Timothy TPJ Jenkins
Tim Jenkins is Associate Professor at DTU Bioengineering, where he leads the Centre for Translational Protein Design and the Digital Biotechnology Lab. His research sits at the interface of generative AI and experimental protein science, and runs along two lines. The first is de novo molecular design: building binders that have never existed in nature, including VHHs and minibinders against snake venom toxins and cancer targets, amongst others. The second is de novo peptide sequencing, where his group's InstaNovo models identify proteins directly from mass spectra without reference databases, opening up venoms, ancient samples and other poorly annotated proteomes. He trained in zoology and ecology in Cairns before completing a PhD in biomedicine and bioinformatics at Cambridge.
