This summer, five graduate students from the University of Puerto Rico had the opportunity to use SLAC’s world-class facilities to keep their studies on track.
Catching the dance of antibiotics and ribosomes at room temperature
A new imaging technique is allowing researchers to pinpoint ways of modifying drugs to avoid side effects.
Q&A: Alan Heirich and Elliott Slaughter Take On SLAC’s Big Data Challenges
As members of the lab’s Computer Science Division, they develop the tools needed to handle ginormous data volumes produced by the next generation of scientific discovery machines.
Social Media: Highlights from Six Months of LCLS Experiments
Here's a glimpse of what we've been up to during the last experimental run – from June to November 2017 – at the Linac Coherent Light Source.
Slideshow: 2017 SSRL/LCLS Users’ Meeting
About 400 people attended the annual conference and workshops for scientists who conduct experiments at SLAC’s light sources.
High-Speed Movie Aids Scientists Who Design Glowing Molecules
With SLAC’s X-ray laser, a research team captured ultrafast changes in fluorescent proteins between “dark” and “light” states. The insights allowed the scientists to design improved markers for biological imaging.
Kathryn Hastie Wins Spicer Award for Lassa Virus Work at SLAC’s X-ray Synchrotron
The Scripps researcher is honored for groundbreaking research at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource that accelerated the development of a vaccine for deadly Lassa fever.
SLAC X-Ray Beam Helps Uncover Blueprint for Lassa Virus Vaccine
A decade-long search ends at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource, where researchers from The Scripps Research Institute emerge with a clear picture of how the deadly Lassa virus enters human cells.
X-Ray Study Reveals Long-Sought Insights Into Potential Drug Target
X-ray studies have produced surprising insights into the workings of a hormone receptor associated with blood pressure regulation that could be a target for new medicines related to cardiovascular conditions, neuropathic pain and tissue growth.
New Droplet-on-Tape Method Assists Biochemical Research at X-Ray Lasers
A research collaboration designed a new assembly-line system that rapidly replaces exposed samples and allows the team to study reactions in real-time.
