Gerard Jacob Kleywegt (born 5 June 1962, Rozenburg) is a Dutch X-ray crystallographer and the team leader of the Protein Data Bank in Europe at the EBI;[1][2][3] a member of the Worldwide Protein Data Bank. [4][5]

Education

Kleywegt obtained his PhD from the University of Utrecht in 1991.

Career

After his PhD, Kleywegt did postdoctoral research with Alwyn Jones at Uppsala University.[6][7] before moving to the EBI.

Research

Kleywegt's research focuses on protein crystallography[8][9][10] and the Protein Data Bank.[11][12][13][14][15][16][17]
