Lindkvist belongs to the Department of Experimental Medical Science at Lund University. Lindkvist received her PhD in 2003 and spend her postdoctoral time at Stanford University. Professor Lindkvist was recruited to Lund University in 2010 in an effort to strategically build up prioritized research area of structural biology. For Lindkvist this was a strategic move to be able to combine structural biology with microscopy on clinical samples. Lindkvist is heading a group in medical structural biology combining high resolution microscopy with X-ray methods and single particle cryo-EM. Lindkvist offers exceptional know-how in structural biology, and has already made significant contributions to the discipline, providing several milestone structures with 40 unique entries in the protein data bank. At the Faculty of Medicine at Lund University, Lindkvist is the sole PI performing these types of studies, thus Lindkvist research line is unique and very successful and have resulted in several high impact publications.
