About
T. Conn Mallet is a structural biologist whose research focuses on advancing methods for protein crystallography, particularly in the emerging field of serial femtosecond X-ray nanocrystallography (SFX). His most-cited work, "Characterization of Protein Nanocrystals Based on the Reversibility of Crystallization" (2016), introduces a novel screening approach that leverages the reversible nature of crystallization to identify and characterize protein nanocrystals. This contribution addresses a critical bottleneck in SFX, which relies on high-quality nanocrystals to determine protein structures at room temperature using X-ray free-electron lasers. While his citation count remains modest, the methodological significance of his work lies in its potential to streamline sample preparation for time-resolved structural studies, enabling researchers to capture dynamic biological processes. Mallet’s research sits at the intersection of biophysics and crystallography, offering practical tools that could accelerate discoveries in drug design and molecular biology. His work underscores the importance of innovative screening techniques in pushing the boundaries of structural biology, making him a valuable contributor to the SFX community.
