Sidhu is an expert in phage display technology and structure-based and combinatorial protein engineering. Prior to joining the University of Toronto in April 2008, he spent a decade as a principal investigator in the Department of Protein Engineering at Genentech, Inc., where he led the development of phage-displayed synthetic antibody libraries
that have since proven to be a rich source of valuable reagents for basic research and potential therapeutics. His University of Toronto laboratory houses the TRAC (Toronto Recombinant Antibody Centre), an integrated laboratory with a state-of-theart, high throughput antibody research platform that can be applied to the generation of therapeutic-grade antibodies. Recently, Dr. Sidhu has launched the Centre for the Commercialization of Antibodies and Biologics (CCAB), a Government of Canada-sponsored Centre of Excellence, that functions as a bridge between academic discoveries and their industrial production and marketing.
