Yufeng Zhou, also known by the nickname Fenny, is passionate about understanding how the unique atomic structures of proteins enable their essential functions within cells. Previously, she has conducted X-ray crystallography studies to uncover the atomic structures of ion channels and transporters, and employed single-molecule TIRF microscopy to explore the conformational dynamics of these proteins. Now, she is excited to venture into a new research area in the Bomba-Warczak lab, where she looks forward to combining her expertise in protein biochemistry and structural biology to investigate the mitochondrial proteome.
