BER STRUCTURAL

For structural biology, BSSD supports a suite of experimental research technologies, methodologies, and instruments at DOE synchrotron and neutron user facilities, operated by DOE's Basic Energy Sciences Program, and BER's Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory. Important recent additions to these capabilities are cryogenic electron microscopy and tomography, technologies that offer complementary high-resolution and three-dimensional options for imaging and structurally characterizing biological samples. BSSD also supports expertise at these facilities to help the BER research community use these tools to advance their research... BER supports 10 structural biology and imaging resources available to the scientific community for advancing research goals toward improved bioenergy use and understanding of biological and environmental systems, thereby strengthening the U.S. bioeconomy...
