Dr. Anderson recieved his BSc (2017) and MSc (2019) from Wilfrid Laurier University (Canada) in the lab of Dr. Joel Weadge, alongside Michael Suits, at WLU where he studied the structure and function of the cellulose phosphoethanolamine transferase BcsG in E. coli. Dr. Anderson received his Ph.D. from the University of Guelph in 2024 under the supervision of Dr. Anthony Clarke where he worked on the mechanism of peptidoglycan O-acetyltransferases. Dr. Anderson is presently a postdoctoral fellow at McMaster University in the lab of Dr. John Whitney where he studies Type VI-secreted polymorphic toxins that target carbohydrate structures.
Dr. Anderson and colleagues have demonstrated the structures of:
CAZy-unclassified Escherichia coli phosphoethanolamine transferase BcsG (6PCZ/6PD0) [1]
GH5 Clostridioides difficile endo-β-glucanase CcsZ (6UJE/6UJF) [2]
CAZy-unclassified Campylobacter jejuni peptidoglycan O-acetyltransferase PatB (8TLB)
