Brief description A biomolecular small angle X-ray scattering facility. The biomolecular small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) facility will support a broad range of research activities that will significantly benefit basic and applied biological and biomedical research as well as the field of biomolecular engineering. Specific areas of investigation will include enzyme action, viral protein assembly, gene regulation, immunity and fertility. The instrumentation will complement the current research tools of Australian biomedical scientists, as well as stimulate new collaborative partnerships and opportunities for researchers studying biological macromolecules. In this way Australia will benefit though direct research outcomes and through training of future scientists in state-of-the-art technologies.

Funding Amount $500,000
