EVENTS
- 2020-11-02We will hold a symposium at Annual Meeting of the Molecular Biology Society of Japan (MBSJ2020 Online). 3PW-16: Functional control of light-sensitive proteins, 4th (Fri) December, 15:30-18:00.
- 2020-07-07We will hold a symposium at The 58th Annual Meeting of the Biophysical Society of Japan (online).1S-1: New Approaches towards molecular movies of biological functions, 16(Wed) September, 13:30-16:00.
X-ray free electron laser (XFEL) is a unique tool to observe these reactions and changes with outstanding time and spatial resolutions. In this research program we will promote and develop this method as a versatile technology applicable to a wide range of biological macromolecules.
