For those of you who may also solve structures,
or are thinking about doing so, please feel free
to contact us. Time slots are still available 
before our Summer down period (July & August). 

Thanks

    -- Protein Crystallography at MacCHESS --

MacCHESS, the macromolecular structure facility at the 
Cornell High-Energy Synchrotron Source, offers high-brightness 
x-ray beamtime to general academic and industrial users worldwide
through a fast and simple application process. Cornell is 
within a day's drive of most of the Northeast as far 
South as the Baltimore-Washington area. 

Experienced staff scientists are on duty to help you and your students 
get the most out of your crystals. We are expanding and new users are welcome.

Special experimental setups are also possible, contact the staff for details.

Can't travel? Send us your crystals. We'll send you data with no
collaborative/publishing obligation.

      o one-page, online express-mode applications for beamtime
      o small friendly academic environment
      o Ph.D. staff scientists on duty to help you
      o no collaborative publishing obligations
