</span></b><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">Axel Brunger is a Professor of Molecular and Cellular Physiology at Stanford University. He also holds an appointment as Investigator in the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. In 1995, he was
awarded the Röntgen Prize for Biosciences from the University of Würzburg. In 2003, he received the Gregori Aminoff Award of the Royal Swedish Academy. In 2005, he was elected member of the National Academy of Sciences. In 2011, he received the DeLano Award
of the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, and in 2014, he received both the Bernard Katz Award of the Biophysical Society and the Carl Hermann Medal of the German Crystallographic Society. In 2016, he received the Trueblood Award of the
American Crystallographic Association. In 2021, he was elected a member of the American Academy of Arts & Sciences. Brunger developed computational tools that enabled the determination of difficult X-ray crystal structures. He also uncovered the molecular
mechanisms of neurotransmitter release when synaptic vesicles fuse with active zones of presynaptic neurons. He recently worked on imaging neurons and synaptic vesicles by cryo-electron tomography.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
