Kyle Anderson (Fed)

Research Chemist

Kyle Anderson is a Research Chemist and Project Leader for H/D exchange mass spectrometry (HDX-MS) for biopharmaceutical analysis at NIST and also has an appointment as a Research Scientist at the University of Maryland Institute for Bioscience and Biotechnology Research (IBBR). In addition to using hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HDX-MS) to characterize the structural dynamics of biopharmaceuticals, he is active in developing and promoting adoption of state-of-the-art methods for HDX-MS to ensure quality and accelerate development of biotherapeutics and biosimilars.

Research Objectives:

  • Characterize protein-based vaccines in formulation by HDX-MS
  • Characterize drug-protein interactions by HDX-MS
  • Adopt internal H/D exchange reporters and materials for NIST standard reference materials to improve reproducibility and harmonization of HDX-MS
  • Develop HDX-MS for assessments of dynamical comparability among innovator and candidate biosimilar drugs
  • Improve HDX-MS technology
