Lisa Rosenberg's talk looks at questions in areas such as systems, creative pathways, symbolic language, and social discourse. She reads selections from her recent title, A Different Physics, and offer reflections on gifts and pitfalls of working in fields often...

Art Meets Science: A Different Physics

After more than a decade, LCLS was upgraded to generate even more powerful X-ray laser beams. With the LCLS-II upgrade, LCLS is around 10,000 times brighter and fires about 8,000 times faster. It generates up to one million pulses per...

An illustration depicts a study by SLAC and Stanford, including cryo-EM imaging (left), that discovered how a cellular machine called TRiC (right) directs the folding of tubulin (yellow tangle at the center of TRiC). Tubulin is the protein building block...

An illustration combines two images. At left is a large piece of scientific equipment, in pink and purple tones, with cables running between its parts. At right, a pom-pom like object with curly tangles in purple and blue shades and yellow tangles at center, reminiscent of a zinnia blossom.

Cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) is a revolutionary tool for studying the molecular architecture of protein, viruses, cells and the specialized molecular machines within cells. This video explains how cryo-EM works, from preparing samples for study to capturing atomic imagery and...
