Fun in the sun – learning protein crystallography in the IMSD Summer Research Institute
I want to thank each of the sixteen students that participated in the UCSC Summer Research Institute for a fun week focused on protein function and structure. Students in the NIH-funded IMSD (Initiative for Maximizing Student Development) program get to spend the summer working with different faculty to pick up hands-on skills in the lab and learn how to analyze data. In our week together, students learned how protein structure can inform our understanding of protein functio
