Session 8

High-precision, high-accuracy macromolecular crystallography

I introduce a novel concept of high-energy data acquisition with a highly optimized setup and workflow for protein crystallography. I will present how the implementation of these procedures allows us to routinely collect single-crystal datasets at atomic and sub-Å resolution.

X-ray restrained/constrained wave function: milestones and perspectives

Today, the X-ray restrained wavefunction (XRW) method (also known as X-ray constrained wavefunction (XCW) approach) stands as one of the cornerstone techniques in modern quantum crystallography. First introduced by Dylan Jayatilaka in 1998, the strategy has undergone a steady and continuous methodological development…
