Alexey Amunts earned his PhD in 2010 from Tel Aviv University for his work on the structure of a plant photosystem I in the lab of Nathan Nelson. He then moved to the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology (LMB) in Cambridge, UK, for a postdoc with Venki Ramakrishnan, where he used cryo-EM to study ribosomes from human and yeast mitochondria. Since 2016, he has been a group leader at the Science for Life Laboratory (SciLifeLab) and Stockholm University. His lab is investigating the mechanisms, assembly and evolution of bioenergetic complexes. In 2019, Alexey was selected for the EMBO Young Investigator Programme, and he has also received the Cancer Foundation Junior Investigator Award, as well as funding from the ERC, Wallenberg Foundation and SSF Future Leaders.
