Here we present a method that can scale and merge data from different types of diffraction experiments -- monochromatic, polychromatic, XFEL, and more! Give it a try! Check out the examples: github.com/rs-station/car…

Interested in cryoEM, but working with small proteins? @Yeates_Lab has the solution! Super cool new work building on many years of careful protein design - check out the preprint.
