CCL: x-ray Beamtime available at Cornell



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.
