About
Inma Ramos is a leading figure in synchrotron science and macromolecular crystallography, with her work centered on the development and operation of cutting-edge beamline instrumentation. Her major contribution is the design and commissioning of the BL13-XALOC beamline at the ALBA synchrotron near Barcelona, the facility’s sole macromolecular crystallography (MX) beamline. Since its user operations began in 2012, XALOC has become a critical resource for structural biology, enabling researchers to conduct automated X-ray diffraction experiments on medium-sized protein crystals. Ramos’s foundational paper on XALOC’s new developments and operation (2014) has garnered 2 citations, reflecting its role as a key reference for synchrotron beamline engineering. Her work has directly advanced the efficiency and accessibility of MX experiments, supporting high-throughput structural studies that underpin drug discovery and molecular biology. By spearheading the only MX beamline at a 3-GeV facility, Ramos has demonstrated expertise in bridging technical innovation with user-focused operation, making her a pivotal contributor to European synchrotron infrastructure and a valuable resource for students and researchers in structural biology.
