The project aims to conduct high-level interdisciplinary research, fostering collaboration with Prof. J.J.K. Kirkensgaard's research group. The scientific objective is to elucidate the light-induced dynamic changes in thylakoid structure, vital for photosynthesis, by measuring the kinetics of these alterations at the nanoscale level. This internship proposes using small-angle X-ray scattering techniques for the first time, combined with biochemical studies and transmission electron microscopy analysis. This interdisciplinary approach will provide a comprehensive understanding of thylakoid structure dynamics and contribute to environmental and technological advancements.
