Structural Biology
Researchers in the Structural Biology Department study the molecular structure and dynamics of biological macromolecules. Often, they will investigate how changes in molecular structures can affect their function. A variety of techniques are used to determine the structures and gain dynamic information about macromolecules, including X-ray crystallography, X-ray free-electron laser crystallography and spectroscopy, electron cryo-microscopy, and X-ray tomography.
