Kelly Mcguire is a postdoctoral researcher at UC San Diego with nine years of experience bridging theoretical and experimental biophysics. She combines Cryo-EM and molecular dynamics to reveal how PINK1 regulates mitochondrial quality control and its links to early-onset Parkinson’s disease. Trained with a PhD in Biophysics from Brigham Young University, she brings hands-on expertise from wet lab roles to advanced structural computation. Her background ranges from triboluminescence studies to clinical lab work, reflecting a talent for connecting fundamental physics to biomedical applications. Driven by mechanistic questions, she pursues approaches that translate atomic-level insight into cellular and disease-relevant understanding.
