Integrative Structural Biology Working Group Biocomp Member, LINXS Fellow

Filipe Maia is an associate professor at the Department of Cell and Molecular Biology at Uppsala University. 
His research focuses on the development of new diffractive imaging methods, in particular, he leads the femtosecond diffractive imaging community venture at the European XFEL.

A common theme in these new imaging methods is the replacement of experimental constraints by complex advanced data analysis, fuelled by increasing data-acquisition rates together with advances in computing power.

He's also engaged in improving reproducibility in science, which led him to found CXIDB, the Coherent X-ray Imaging Data Bank, currently hosting more than 500 TB of data from coherent diffractive-imaging experiments.
