High resolution macromolecular crystallography		High resolution diffraction measurements (< 0.8 Å).
Large unit cell MX		Diffraction measurements from crystals with large unit cell dimensions (complexes, viruses).
Phasing by MAD and SAD		MAD / SAD phasing from most heavy atoms of interest for MX (Se, Fe, Hg, Pt, Br etc). Access to long wavelengths for S-SAD phasing.
Applied Research		High throughput measurements – automated data collection, phasing, high resolution studies.
