Dawid S. Zyla

Assistant Professor

Dawid is interested in understanding the molecular mechanisms of protein refolding and how they contribute to its function. He completed his PhD on E. coli pili stability at ETH Zurich in the lab of Prof. Glockshuber and postdoctoral structural studies on Measles virus fusion proteins at the La Jolla Institute for Immunology in Prof. Saphire Lab. With expertise in X-ray crystallography, cryo-EM and computational biology, Dawid established his lab at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in June 2026 to investigate how dynamic conformational changes drive protein function.
