Robert Bosman

Robert Bosman is a Professor affiliated with the University of Hamburg's Medical Faculty, Department of Structural Biology. His research focuses on elucidating molecular mechanisms of membrane proteins and light-driven processes using advanced structural biology techniques such as X-ray crystallography, XFEL-based methods, and time-resolved spectroscopy. Key areas of interest include protein dynamics, photoactive proteins (e.g., rhodopsins, phytochromes), and enzymatic catalysis in metalloproteins.
