Matthew Eddy PhD

Matthew Eddy received his PhD in physical chemistry from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the laboratory of Professor Robert Griffin. During his PhD, Dr. Eddy developed new approaches for using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in the solid state to determine structures of membrane proteins in cellular-like environments. Following his PhD, Dr. Eddy joined the laboratories of Professors Raymond Stevens and Kurt Wüthrich at The Scripps Research Institute as an American Cancer Society Postdoctoral Fellow. As a postdoctoral fellow, Dr. Eddy used an integrative structural biology approach to study the structures, conformational dynamics, and functions of human G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), focusing on the application of nuclear magnetic resonance to improve our understanding of GPCR allosteric function.
