Fifty years ago, a big step was taken in science. The Stanford SSRL synchrotron radiation and protein crystallography initiative started. This was a game-changer. It helped scientists see proteins in a whole new way. Over the years, this technology has grown. It has made protein crystallography fas
Scientists have been looking into ways to break down Trichloroethylene (TCE) because it is bad for both people and the planet. TCE is a solvent often used in factories. One interesting method is using light to speed up a chemical reaction. The process involves shining ultraviolet (UV) ligh
In October 1994, the Journal of Synchrotron Radiation (JSR) kicked off its journey with a 100-page inaugural issue featuring 15 articles. Over the past three decades, JSR has grown alongside significant achievements, including multiple Nobel Prizes awarded for research conducted using synchrotron ra
