Brief Biography

Jack Przybyla received his B.S. degree in biochemistry from Michigan State University in 2019. He joined the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign as a graduate student in biochemistry in Fall 2019, where (after rotations) he joined the laboratory of Prof. Scott K. Silverman to study deoxyribozymes.

Research Interests

My research in the Silverman lab sought to identify deoxyribozymes that site-specifically modify peptides and proteins by lysine acylation reactions.
