David F Sargent

Biography

David F Sargent has obtained his PhD in Biophysics from the University of Western Ontario, Canada, followed by Postdoctoral studies at the ETH Zurich and the University of Sydney (Australia). He has extensive experience in macromolecular crystallography at the ETH Zurich, and recently has also been associated with the Multiscale Robotics Laboratory (ETH Zurich) of Bradley J Nelson. He is one of the founders of MagnebotiX, a spinoff of the ETH, which provides tools for magnetic propulsion and guidance at the microscopic scale. The work reported above uses this technology to streamline and accelerate the process of macromolecular crystal structure determination. d David F Sargent has obtained his PhD in Biophysics from the University of Western Ontario, Canada, followed by Postdoctoral studies at the ETH Zurich and the University of Sydney (Australia).
