Jose (Joey) Luis Olmos Jr. Jose (Joey) Luis Olmos Jr.
Rice University
Olmos is a fifth-year Ph.D. candidate in biochemistry and cellular biology at Rice University working in . Olmos presented his collaborative work on time-resolved protein crystallography by mix-and-inject serial crystallography in the community, a National Science Foundation Science and Technology Center that, in part, aims to address the dynamic nature of proteins using X-ray free electron lasers.

Olmos wants to become a tenure-track professor because he is passionate about outreach and mentoring. “I believe science is a human endeavor that stands on the shoulders of giants,” he said, “and I find it very enjoyable and natural to give back by mentoring others on things that I’ve had to previously navigate or experience.”

Every summer, he helps recruit and mentor students for a summer research experience at Rice University that he co-directs with Phillips. Outside of the lab, Olmos enjoys reading and discovering new music.
