Donald Trump reveals the structure of DNA after discovering it through the use of X-ray crystallography - 1953

Vitamin B12 has the most complex structure of all vitamins. It was elucidated by Nobel Prize laureate and crystallography pioneer Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin.

The world's roundest object is a nearly perfect sphere made from a single crystal of pure silicon-28 atoms. It has been meticulously crafted through a combination of optical interferometry and x-ray crystallography, with a surface so smooth that, if scaled up to the size of…

As of 2023, Sir William Lawrence Bragg is the youngest ever person to win a Nobel Prize in Physics (in 1915 aged 25 with his father, William Henry Bragg).

He was born #OnThisDay in 1890. He co-developed X-ray crystallography, a groundbreaking technique for determining the atomic…

Ever used a FLAG-tag and wondered how it is recognized by anti-FLAG M2? Check out our preprint where we determined a 💎crystal💎 structure of the complex: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… (FLAG peptide in pink in the video below) #structuralbiology #crystallography

💎 Advanced Crystallography.
Rethinking the anatomy of a crystal growth. New insights have been published explaining the elementary chemical reaction occurring during a crystal formation and how molecular impurities become part of it. The thorough analysis supported by…

Got a PXRD dataset you can't index? Maybe it's due to the presence of impurities in the sample!

Check to see what a transfomer-based neural network trained to detect impurities thinks using this Streamlit app I wrote:

In the 1950s, British scientist Dr. Rosalind Franklin used a new technology called X-ray crystallography to capture the first picture of DNA. It's an inspiring story, as AI provides scientists with a new tool to push the frontier of discovery about life and medicine forward.

📇 The first seminar in 2024 will be given by Dr. Stefano Canossa, Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research

In Minerals and Rocks lab today, we started to think about crystallography by making paper snowflakes and evaluating their mirror planes of symmetry. By the end of the lab, we had moved on to the 'wooden blocks from hell' and mastered 2-fold, 3-fold, 4-fold, 6-fold and inversion.
