Kirkland resident Philip Lindstedt has been awarded a Washington Research Foundation Fellowship.

Lindstedt is currently working in the Maly Lab at the University of Washington developing small molecule controlled split protein switches for highly selective enzymatic inhibition, which could be applied to study intracellular signaling pathways implicated in disease and cellular differentiation.

Lindstedt will graduate from the University of Washington in June with a degree in bio chemistry. He graduated from International Community School in Kirkland.
