Biosciences Workshop Planned for Feb 13
BycorieThe Advanced Light Source is planning a major upgrade, which will result in brighter, more coherent beams. The upgrade will occur in 4-5 years, and so now is the time for the biosciences community to define our vision of synchrotron capabilites for biosciences (scattering, diffraction, tomography and IR methods) in the years to come, and…
Berkeley’s Mini-Cyclotron

And… it works!
