Edward W. Yu is an American crystallographer.

After completing his doctoral degree at the University of Michigan in 1997, Yu became a postdoctoral researcher with the National Institutes of Health,[1] then subsequently joined the faculty of Iowa State University in 2004.[1][2] He is also associated with the Ames National Laboratory.[3][4] ISU's Department of Chemistry named Yu to the John D. Corbett Professorship in 2014.[5] That year, he was also elected a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.[6] In 2016, the American Physical Society elected Yu to fellowship, "[f]or his distinguished contributions to the field of efflux transporters, which mediate resistance to a variety of antimicrobials in bacteria, and his research into the crystallography of integral membrane proteins."[7][8][9]
