About
Jonathan M. Diprose is a structural biologist and bioinformatician whose work has significantly advanced the automation of protein crystallography. His key research areas include high-throughput crystallization, laboratory information management systems (LIMS), and the development of web-based tools for structural biology. Diprose is best known for creating **xtalPiMS**, a PiMS-based web application that revolutionized the management and monitoring of crystallization trials. This platform addressed the critical challenge of handling the massive data generated by nanolitre-scale crystallization and robotic imaging systems, enabling researchers to efficiently track, analyze, and share experimental results. While his most-cited paper has garnered 6 citations, its impact lies in its practical utility within the structural biology community, streamlining workflows that underpin major protein structure determinations. Diprose’s contributions exemplify the essential role of software engineering in modern structural biology, bridging the gap between robotic experimentation and user-friendly data management. His work continues to support researchers in accelerating the discovery of novel protein structures, making him a key figure in the automation of crystallographic pipelines.
