Joost Schymkowitz
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Joost Schymkowitz is a Belgian molecular biologist and researcher at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (Brussels, Belgium). Together with Frederic Rousseau he is group leader at the VIB Switch Laboratory, Vrije Universiteit Brussel.
His research interest is on essential cellular processes where functional regulation is governed by protein conformational switches that have to be actively controlled to ensure cell viability[1]
He obtained a PhD at the University of Cambridge (Cambridge, United Kingdom) in 2001. He did a Postdoc at the EMBL in Heidelberg Germany from 2001 until 2003. Joost Schymkowitz is a VIB Group leader since 2003.
