Yue Ma

Yue Ma is a Researcher at the University of Manchester, affiliated with the Division of Molecular & Cellular Function (L5). Her work focuses on structural biology of membrane proteins using advanced techniques like electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and electrophysiology. She completed her PhD in 2023 at the University of Leeds under Dr. Christos Pliotas, followed by a BSc in Biochemistry from the University of Bristol (2017).

Her research interests include protein conformational dynamics, membrane protein structure determination, and the application of pulsed dipolar EPR methods. Key contributions include studies on mechanosensitive ion channels, membrane-bound pyrophosphatases, and bacterial outer membrane proteins.

Recent articles highlight her work on EPR-based structural analysis of membrane proteins, conformational ensembles under membrane tension, and the role of Darobactin B in bacterial outer membrane stability. She collaborates with institutions like the Photon Science Institute and Manchester Institute of Biotechnology.

No scientific awards are explicitly listed, though her research has garnered significant readership on platforms like Mendeley. Advising and grants are not detailed in the provided information.
