Research summary
AI-generated

Amala Phadkule's publicly available work spans crystal chemistry and molecular biophysics, including studies of how small organic molecules pack together in crystal structures (cocrystals) and, more recently, research on photosynthetic proteins such as photosystem II and engineered chlorophyll-binding proteins. This suggests a research path that has moved from structural crystallography toward protein engineering and the study of light-harvesting biological systems. Prospective students would likely encounter techniques from X-ray crystallography, spectroscopy, and protein design.
