New insights into a gene most associated with breast cancer, gained with the help of Argonne’s Advanced Photon Source, could explain how DNA is repaired following cell division.
A two-day virtual workshop highlighted the past year-plus of work to understand and combat the virus that causes COVID-19 and looked ahead at preparations for the next pandemic.
Argonne looks to exascale and beyond, sorting out the relationship between computing and experimental facilities, the need for speed and AI’s role in making it all work.
Clinical trials are underway after scientists using the Advanced Photon Source found lasofoxifene may be a safer and more effective treatment for breast cancer than the current gold standard.
To provide X-ray beams that are both very bright and very tightly focused, an Argonne team had to create a new system of mirrors, lenses and equipment for the upgraded Advanced Photon Source.
Using the powerful X-ray beams of the Advanced Photon Source with new computer-driven algorithms, scientists will be able to study batteries and electronics at nanometer scales.
