David Stuart

Appointment

Advisory Committee Chair

Molecular Architecture of Life

Connect

Nuffield Department of Medicine

About

David Stuart’s work involves structural biology, virology, viral proteins, viruses, X-ray and crystallography. His research interests include the structure of viruses, viral proteins and cellular proteins that interact with viruses. Stuart has made many important contributions to the study of structural virology, including the determination of the structures of foot-and-mouth disease virus, bluetongue virus and the membrane-containing phages PRD1 and PM2. His work has set new records for atomic resolution of such large and complex structures. Stuart also collaborates on a number of projects investigating how viruses interact with receptors and how they evolve.
