Your team
The macromolecular crystallography (MX) group is responsible for the two beamlines BioMAX and MicroMAX and the fragment screening facility FragMAX, supporting structural biology research aiming at understanding biology at a molecular level with applications in drug development and biotechnology.

BioMAX is in user operation since 2017 with world class performance thanks to the high-performance optics, experiment setup instrumentation, control system and computing resources.

The emphasis at MicroMAX is serial crystallography, time-resolved experiments and studies of protein dynamics. MicroMAX will also offer high-throughput crystallography functionality. MicroMAX recently started user operation and is now in a phase when the exciting new possibilities provided by the first 4th generation storage ring and the advanced beamline instrumentation are materializing.

The international and interdisciplinary MX group consists of around 15 persons.
