Dr. Jose Hernandez

Prof. Rodriguez studies the complex architecture of biological systems – from single biomolecules to cellular assemblies – at high resolution. His work is largely based on diffraction phenomena and combines computational, biochemical, and biophysical experiments. The development of new methods is central to this work, particularly using emerging technologies in cryo-electron microscopy, nano and coherent x-ray diffraction, and macromolecular design. Combined, these tools can reveal undiscovered structures that broadly influence chemistry, biologie, and medicine.

He is a true Bruin. He received his B.S. in BioPhysics at UCLA and his Ph.D. in Molecular Biology, also at UCLA.
