Jonathan Doye is a Professor of Theoretical Chemistry at Oxford University, having joined as a lecturer in 2006. He previously held positions at the University of Cambridge as a Junior Research Fellow and at the Royal Society as a University Research Fellow. Dr. Doye has extensively contributed to the field through his research on molecular simulations and has developed the oxDNA model, which is widely utilized for studying DNA biophysics and nanotechnology. His research interests include structural ordering processes in soft matter and biomolecular systems, with a focus on DNA origami and the mechanical properties of large DNA nanostructures. His work explores the relationship between the mechanical response of DNA structures to twists and stresses, as well as their self-assembly in the context of liquid crystals. Moreover, he investigates prokaryotic S-layers in bacterial cells and their structural properties using advanced prediction methods, contributing to our understanding of life’s evolutionary processes. Throughout his career, he has collaborated with various research groups and has been recognized with the Royal Society Chemistry Harrison Memorial Prize.
