About
Dr. Jun Lim is a leading figure in macromolecular crystallography, whose work has significantly advanced the capabilities of synchrotron beamlines for structural biology. His primary research focuses on the development and optimization of high-flux microfocus beamlines, enabling the study of micrometre-sized protein crystals that were previously inaccessible. Dr. Lim’s most notable contribution is the design and commissioning of the BL-11C Micro-MX beamline at the Pohang Light Source II, a state-of-the-art in-vacuum undulator-based facility that delivers an exceptionally high photon flux. This beamline, which became available to users in June 2017, is energy-tunable from 5.0 to 20 keV, supporting both conventional and micro-crystallography. His seminal paper on this work (2021) has garnered 28 citations, reflecting its importance in the field. By enabling the structural determination of challenging biological macromolecules from tiny crystals, Dr. Lim’s engineering and scientific achievements have provided the global research community with a powerful new tool, directly impacting drug discovery and our understanding of complex biomolecular mechanisms.
