Did you know that the moon and sun's gravitational pull creates tidal forces that even affect the Advanced Photon Source? It's true: These forces subtly deform the APS every day, but don't worry—it's equipped to handle it. 👉 anl.gov/article/celest…
Researchers at @argonne are using #AI and supercomputing to revolutionize cancer research. They also leverage the APS to capture protein structures, enhancing visualization and targeting for treatment. anl.gov/article/argonn…
Exciting news: The APS has reached a key milestone by achieving the full design beam current of 200 milliamps (mA) in our upgraded electron storage ring. This marks another important step toward the anticipated completion of the APS Upgrade project this summer. Stay tuned!
#FunFact: Wednesday marked 30 years since the APS saw its first light! Check out our website to learn 30 things you may not know about America’s premier X-ray light source - bit.ly/4j4skx8
A biomedicine breakthrough! Using AI and ultrabright X-ray beams at @advancedphoton, a team of scientists led by Nobel Prize winner David Baker created a computational method for generating proteins that bind and signal a wide range of small molecules – bit.ly/4iIZVfK
Daniel Haskel, a group leader at Argonne's @advancedphoton, has been selected as a fellow for the 2025 cohort of the Oppenheimer Science and Energy Leadership Program (OSELP) - bit.ly/3FwxWC0
From repairing cars to beamline engineering, Oliver Schmidt's career journey exemplifies transformation! Learn more about Schmidt's path and his role as the beamline engineering lead for the @advancedphoton upgrade - bit.ly/3DoiFCr
