Structure Determination Core (SDC)

 

The SDC is responsible for crystal handling, data collection and analysis, and structure determination and refinement. The SDC makes use of currently available resources and also co-develops new ones. Additionally, it makes use of the Advanced Light Source (ALS) beam line 5.0.3 within the framework of GNF. The ALS beam line serves as a prototype for the automation systems required for sample mounting and analysis, which was completed in summer 2000.

 

Below are the major institutions involved with the SDC:

 

A Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) division, the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory (SSRL)

 

Advanced Light Source (ALS), part of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory
