Dame Carol Robinson

Dame Carol Robinson is a Professor of Chemistry at the University of Oxford, affiliated with the Department of Chemistry. Her research focuses on native mass spectrometry, with an emphasis on understanding protein interactions and structures in the gas phase. She is the Director of the Kavli Institute for Nanoscience Discovery at Oxford and has pioneered the application of native mass spectrometry to study protein complexes and their interactions. Her work includes developing methods to analyze membrane proteins and their roles in health disorders. Dame Carol Robinson holds the Dr. Lee’s Professor of Chemistry chair and is the first female Professor of Chemistry at the University of Oxford.

Carol V Robinson is a Professor of Chemistry at the University of Oxford, specializing in mass spectrometry. Her research focuses on the structural analysis of proteins and macromolecular complexes using advanced mass spectrometry techniques. She has contributed significantly to understanding protein folding, aggregation, and interactions, particularly in the context of amyloid diseases. Her work includes the development of ion mobility–mass spectrometry for structural biology and the analysis of protein complexes in the gas phase. Robinson's research also explores the structural basis of protein–protein interactions and the role of lipid binding in membrane protein function.
