Alexander Cocker
Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Structural Biology
Bio Following two years working in clinical trials Dr Cocker started his PhD under the supervision of Professor Mark Johnson and Dr Nesrina Imami, studying the impact of HIV-1 infection on pregnancy related immunological changes using fluorescent cytometry and functional assays to explore natural killer, dendritic and T cell populations longitudinally.
Dr Cocker is continuing his work in HIV and other infectious diseases, and is especially focussed on how chronic infection can affect natural killer cell education, development and function. -
Joao Pedro Garcia Lopes Maia Rodrigues
Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Structural Biology
Current Research and Scholarly Interests I am interested in the structure of protein complexes and understanding how it relates to their biological function. Throughout my career, I have developed and applied computational methods to integrate crystallography, NMR, FRET, Cryo-EM, and mutagenesis data to build high-resolution (atomic) models of proteins and protein interactions. I am also interested in education and outreach, and in how computational tools can help the public understand science better.

Miri Krupkin
Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Structural Biology
Bio My background is deeply rooted in structural biology and biochemistry of proteins and RNA. My current research focuses on understanding the regulatory role of RNA structures in HIV infection. To this end, I am focusing on revealing the conformational landscape of viral RNA during reverse transcription. I am also devoted to promoting science education and outreach.
