The Team
Professor Stephen A. Baldwin
Steve is Professor of Biochemistry in the Institute of Membrane and Systems Biology, Faculty
of Biological Sciences, University of Leeds. He obtained his B.A. in Natural
Sciences and Ph.D. in Biochemistry from the University of Cambridge in
1973 and 1977 respectively. Following postdoctoral training at Dartmouth
Medical School in the USA, he worked at the Royal Free Hospital School
of Medicine, University of London, until joining the academic staff of
the University of Leeds in 1993.

Dr. Xiaobing Xia
Xiaobing is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow, supported by a grant from the BBSRC, "The Membrane Protein Structure Initiative", to a large consortium of researchers throughout the UK. This forms part of the Structural Proteomics of Rational Targets (SPoRT) initiative. It aims to solve the structures of a large number of human membrane transporters and channels, and their bacterial homologues, using high throughput approaches. Professors P.J.F. Henderson, M.J. McPherson, S.E.V. Phillips, J.B.C. Findlay and J.P. Knox are all involved in the project at Leeds.
