Axel T. Brunger

Early Life and Education

Axel T. Brunger was born in Leipzig, East Germany, on 25 November 1956. He graduated with a degree in Physics and Mathematics from the University of Hamburg in 1977 and later completed his Physics Diploma there in 1980. He then obtained a PhD in Biophysics from the Technical University of Munich in 1982, advised by Klaus Schulten.

Career

After graduating, Brunger held a NATO postdoctoral fellowship to work with Martin Karplus at Harvard University, where he subsequently became a research associate in the department of chemistry after a brief return to Germany. In 1987, he joined the faculty in the Department of Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry at Yale University. In 2000, he moved to Stanford University, where he is currently Professor of Molecular and Cellular Physiology and holds an appointment as Investigator in the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. He served as the Chair of the Department of Molecular and Cellular Physiology from 2013 to 2017.

Awards and Honours

Research

Brunger is known for developing a computer program called CNS, which is used for solving structures based on X-ray diffraction or solution NMR data. The program is an extension of X-PLOR, a 1987 program developed with John Kuriyan and Martin Karplus, and has become a standard in the field. Brunger's research group currently studies the molecular mechanism of synaptic vesicle fusion in neurotransmission.
