Eva Nogales is a Spanish physicist and structural biologist known for pioneering studies of cellular molecular machinery. After earning a PhD at the University of Keele, she carried out postdoctoral research at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, where she determined the first atomic structure of tubulin and identified the binding site of the anti-cancer drug taxol using electron crystallography. At the University of California, Berkeley and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, she has helped advance the use of cryo-electron microscopy to study microtubules, transcription and translation complexes, PRC2, and telomerase.Photograph credit: Christopher Michel
