Description: Biomedical technology research center that is funded for two purposes: for core research as motivated by the important biomedical problems and support to all structural biologists making use of the Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source (CHESS) facility for crystallographic and small-angle X-ray scattering experiments, as well as for novel experiments requiring special equipment and staff assistance not readily available at other synchrotron sources. MacCHESS provides a facility for developing new technology and for advancing the research goals of structural biologists as well as the broader biological research community. MacCHESS has a strong commitment to training future leaders, who will be able to translate advances in synchrotron science and structural biology into valuable biomedical applications. It operates three insertion-device beamlines (stations A-1, F-1 and F-2) devoted to macromolecular crystallography. The resource also supports additional bending magnet stations for part-time macromolecular X-ray experiments. The resource specializes in large unit-cell diffraction, ultra-high-resolution diffraction, multiple-wavelength anomalous dispersion (MAD) phasing, rapid-throughput crystallography (structure-based drug design and structural genomics), microdiffraction, high-pressure cryo-cooling, multiple-beam diffraction and software development.
