Xiaodong Zhang FRS is a Professor of Macromolecular Structure and Function at Imperial College London.[2][3][4]

Education[edit]

Zhang was educated at Peking University and Stony Brook University where she was awarded a PhD in 1995 on X-ray microscopy[5][6] supervised by Janos Kirz and David Sayre.[1]

Research and career[edit]

After a postdoctoral research position at Harvard University with Don Wiley she moved to the Imperial Cancer Research Fund in 1997.[1] She was appointed a lecturer at Imperial College London in 2001, a Reader in 2005 and a Professor in 2008.[1]

Zhang's research investigates structural biology, transcription, DNA repair and AAA proteins, particularly ATPases.[2][7][8][9]

Awards and honours[edit]

Zhang was awarded EMBO Membership in 2016[10] and elected a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS) in 2024.[11]
