Martin Schmeing
Biography: 

Martin Schmeing performed graduate research with Tom Steitz at Yale University, studying the architecture and mechanism of the large ribosomal subunit, obtaining his PhD in 2004. He then performed postdoctoral training at the LMB, Cambridge, with Venki Ramakrishnan, using cryo-EM and X-ray crystallography to investigate initiation and elongation of translation.

Martin established his own laboratory at Ï㽶ÊÓƵ in 2010, where he studies nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs) and other dynamic macromolecular biosynthetic megaenzymes using structural, biophysical, biochemical, cell biology and genetic approaches. Martin is currently a James McGill Professor in the Department of Biochemistry and the Director of the McGill Centre de recherche en biologie structurale.
