Swati Aggarwal

Swati Aggarwal is a Researcher at Lund University's Department of Molecular Biosciences, specializing in structural biology with expertise in neutron macromolecular crystallography. Her research focuses on determining protein structures involved in biological transport mechanisms, particularly Outer Membrane Protein F (OmpF) which facilitates antibiotic penetration in bacteria.

Her research interests include developing advanced crystallography techniques for studying protein dynamics and membrane transport mechanisms. She specializes in sample preparation methods for neutron crystallography and integrates scientific visualization with artistic representation.

Her publications focus on methodological advancements in structural biology, including X-ray crystallography techniques and protocols for producing deuterated proteins for neutron diffraction studies. This work supports antibiotic research by revealing membrane protein structures at atomic resolution.
