About
Mohamed Ibrahim is a structural biologist whose work has advanced the frontier of macromolecular crystallography, particularly in the study of radiation-sensitive and microcrystalline samples. His key research areas include the development of high-throughput sample-delivery methods and the application of serial crystallography at synchrotron and X-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) facilities. Ibrahim’s major contribution is the design and implementation of high-density sample grids, as detailed in his highly cited 2015 paper (75 citations), which dramatically increased the efficiency of data collection from multiple small crystals. This innovation enabled researchers to collect more data in less time, reducing radiation damage and making it feasible to solve structures from previously intractable samples. His work has been instrumental in supporting challenging structural investigations using microfocus beamlines and has paved the way for productive femtosecond crystallography experiments. By streamlining sample mounting and delivery, Mohamed Ibrahim has directly accelerated the pace of discovery in structural biology, providing essential tools for the community to probe the atomic details of complex biological macromolecules.
