Georgios Skiniotis is a Professor of Molecular and Cellular Physiology, of Structural Biology and of Photon Science at Stanford University. His research focuses on developing a mechanistic understanding of signal translation at the cell membrane through structural biology, biochemistry and simulation methods. The Skiniotis laboratory employs primarily cryo-electron microscopy and 3D reconstruction techniques to investigate the structural biology of cell surface receptors, with a main emphasis on transmembrane signal instigation in cytokine receptors and G protein coupled receptor complexes.
Skiniotis received his undergraduate degree from the University of Leeds in the United Kingdom and his PhD from the European Molecular Biology Laboratory in Heidelberg, Germany. He completed postdoctoral training at EMBL-Heidelberg and as a Damon Runyon Cancer Research Foundation postdoctoral fellow at Harvard Medical School. He held his professorship at Stanford from 2017 until 2024. Among his honors are the Pew Scholar in the Biomedical Sciences award, the White House Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers, and the Earl and Thressa Stadtman Scholar Award.
