Over the course of its long history, powder diffraction has provided countless insights into the properties of materials. It will continue to do so in the future, but with an emphasis on ...

Michelle Francl wonders if the harem effect in crystallography is overrated. But hang on a minute, what about Kathleen Lonsdale, Rosalind Franklin, Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin, Isabelle Karle and Ada ...

Proteins are constantly moving, but our structures of them are static. Clare Sansom talks to the researchers using ...

The Crystallography Open Database (COD) holds about half a million structures and has caught 159 instances of fraud since its inception in 2003.

Crystallography is the term applied to the field which studies crystalline structures. Many crystalline structures exist in nature, such as gemstones and rocks. In the field of life sciences ...

WIKIMEDIA, JEFF DAHL Crystallography—most simply, X-ray scattering by crystals—reveals the structure of molecules. This year, UNESCO is honoring the technique with its International Year of ...

Crystallography is a field of science concerning the analysis of atomic structures in crystalline solids using a specific set of analytical techniques. By using the known properties and inner ...

X-ray crystallography is extensively used in materials science to characterize the atomic structure of crystalline materials, such as metals, ceramics, and semiconductors. It provides insights into ...

Electron crystallography is similar to X-ray crystallography, but scientists study the diffraction pattern made by firing electrons at a crystal rather than X-rays.

It will provide transformative new capabilities, including small-molecule serial crystallography to study reversible and irreversible processes. This new method of crystallography involves taking ...

The 2026 IUCr Congress in Calgary Canada will be jointly hosted by the U.S. National Committee for Crystallography, the Canadian National Committee for Crystallography, and the American ...

Mosquito Crystallography are automated systems for protein crystallization screening that utilize crystallography-based structural biology, allowing rapid, reliable, and reproducible ...
