Jon Marles-Wright obtained his PhD in structural biology from the University of Oxford, where he focused on understanding how human immune receptors interact with their targets. For his post-doctoral training he moved to the University of Newcastle, where his research focus moved to bacterial cell biology. In 2012 Jon was appointed to a two-year career development fellowship at the University of Newcastle where he developed his interest in the structural basis of metabolic compartmentalization within bacteria. This was followed by nearly four years at The University of Edinburgh as a Chancellor’s Fellow in the Institute of Structural and Molecular Biology and Centre for Systems and Synthetic Biology. Jon is currently a Senior Lecturer in Microbial Biotechnology in the School of Biology at Newcastle University.
