Profile bio
About Leo Williams
Hello, my name is Leo Williams and I am a recent graduate of California Institute of Technology with a bachelor's in Bioengineering. In August, I will pursue a PhD in Biological Engineering at MIT. I have experience conducting research in multiple laboratories. I examined COVID-19 statistics and performed regression analyses with the department of mathematics at Lawrence Technological University. I utilized multiple mutagenesis methods in an attempt to engineer an enzyme to treat MPS IIIC. In the summer of 2022, I designed a variant of a fluorescence based Mycobacterium tuberculosis death reporter which doubled the signal to noise ratio. For this work, I won an ABRCMS Presentation Award in Immunology.

Leo Williams work experience
A career timeline built from the work history available for this profile.
Undergraduate Researcher
I participated in the MIT Summer Research Program in the Bryson laboratory. I first validated a fluorescence based single cell Mycobacterium tuberculosis death reporter protein. Then, I rationally designed 16 variants of the reporter and quantified their signal strength in Mycobacterium smegmatis and human monocyte derived macrophage infection settings using flow cytometry, engineering a prototype which doubles signal to noise ratio. I also participated in regular lab meetings. I presented this work at ABRCMS 2022 and was awarded with a Student Presentation Award in Immunology.
Jun 2022 - Aug 2022
Undergraduate Researcher
I worked in the Chou laboratory to utilize site saturation mutagenesis and error prone PCR to develop NAGLU enzyme mutants which are suitable for enzyme replacement therapy to treat patients with Mucopolysaccharidosis IIIC. I normalized and analyzed enzymatic assay data and participated in regular meetings to discuss research and experiments.
Jun 2021 - Jun 2022
Intern
I worked with Regional Customer Operations Support (RCOS) to discover the root of problems in company processes and develop solutions for these problems.
Jun 2020 - Mar 2021
Undergraduate Researcher
I extracted information from emerging COVID-19 statistic to extrapolate the causes of the differences in the spread and mortality rates across the United States. Also, I quantified trends in the statistics to improve prediction methods to create more accurate mathematical forecast models of COVID-19 and similar viruses.
