Welcome to make your master/bachelor-project at Center for Molecular Protein Science!

Several experienced research group leaders can supervise your project, on master level or bachelor level. It is common that you also get supervision in the lab from other persons, like postdocs or PhD-students, whereas the supervisors in the list below will have the main responsibility for your project. 

You can click on the name of a supervisor in the list below, to get to each supervisor’s web-page where you can for example read a short comment about what the research group is working with, read a recent publication from that group and get the email address to each supervisor. You can contact supervisors directly via email to decide on a personal meeting.

You can also first contact the head of teaching for a general discussion of the various possible projects and supervisors.

List of supervisors for research projects

The focus of the research activities is within some major areas of modern biochemistry, structural biology and biophysical chemistry, covering topics such as structure, function and dynamics of enzymes, membrane proteins, molecular interactions, large macromolecular assemblies. Biochemical and biophysical methods used are recombinant protein expression and purification, chromatography, spectroscopy, electrophoresis, mass spectrometry, surface plasmon resonance, dynamic light scattering, X-ray crystallography and NMR.

Ingemar André- protein design, protein evolution, computer modelling of proteins, directed evolution

Tommy Cedervall- nanoparticles, nanosafety, protein analyses

Urban Johanson - aquaporins and other membrane proteins, transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels

Derek Logan - protein crystallography, cryo-EM, ribonucleotide reductase enzymes

Martin Lundqvist- amyloid peptides, protein interactions with nanoparticles, nanoparticle characterization

Sara Snogerup Linse - amyloid proteins and peptides, calcium-binding proteins

Herwig Schüler -  enzymology, development of cancer drugs and antibiotics

Henrik Stålbrand - carbohydrate degrading enzymes, enzyme engineering for green chemistry

Susanna Horsefield- aquaporins, mitochondrial pyruvate carrier, structural biology, protein-protein interactions

Mikael Akke - protein dynamics, structure, function; thermodynamics protein-ligand binding; NMR spectroscopy
