Biography
Ming Yue Lee is an expert in macromolecular crystallography with focus on technology development and implementation in novel membrane protein crystallization and diffraction methods. He has made contributions in the field of GPCR structural biology in the forms of active participation and validation of serial femto-second crystallography using XFEL sources, as well as being involved in validation of delivery mechanisms for various cutting-edge diffraction experiments both at XFEL and synchrotron radiation sources. He is actively leading and driving the effort to develop and implement technology that can enhance and optimize serial crystallography at polychromatic synchrotron radiation sources. His current focus is building up a system approach to study membrane protein structure-function relationships between different components of the cellular membrane environment with an emphasis on spatial and temporal resolution of proteomic interactions
