The Advanced Light Source (ALS) Overview
|
Location:
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, University of California at Berkeley, in the hills directly above the campus |
Organization:
The Macromolecular Crystallography Facility (MCF) at ALS is a participating research team (PRT) based in the Physical Biosciences Division of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL).
The MCF developed and operates the current beamline 5.0.2 as a national user facility for biological crystallography.
A number of future beamlines are being developed by the MCF. Other PRTs are being organized to develop and operate future beamlines as well.
A minimum of 25% of all beamtime will be dedicated to general users.
