Regular biography

Andrew Baldwin is a Professor of Physical and Theoretical Chemistry at the University of Oxford, affiliated with the Department of Chemistry. His research focuses on using biomolecular NMR techniques to study the biophysical basis of protein function and malfunction in health and disease. His work combines advanced NMR spectroscopy with complementary methods such as ion-mobility mass spectrometry and electron microscopy to investigate protein structure, dynamics, and behavior in cellular environments. Baldwin's research addresses protein mis-folding diseases, including Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, by exploring the role of molecular chaperones in preventing amyloid formation. He is also involved in developing novel experimental methodologies and computational techniques for structural biology.
