DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The project will develop a world-leading suite of experimental facilities for the life-science research community. With the focus on macromolecular crystallography (MX) and x-ray scattering, there will also be user programs in correlated MX and optical spectroscopy, and one in fluorescence imaging of metals in biological materials. The extraordinary brightness of NSLS-II will provide unprecedentedly small, bright, and well-collimated x-ray beams. To exploit these qualities, extra care will be exerted to provide the best quality crystal-diffraction and x-ray scattering data from the NSLS-II beams, and high levels of automation. Multiple experimental modes will be installed for x-ray scattering to investigate solutions, membranes, and tissues. We expect high success of the project, owed in part to the remarkable community of life-science researchers in the 400 mile-long corridor from Boston to Washington, all within driving distance of BNL, and to the solid record of productivity in structural biology having been provided this community during the lifetime of the NSLS.

描述（由申请人提供）：该项目将为生命科学研究社区开发一套世界领先的实验设施。侧重于大分子晶体学（MX）和X射线散射，还将在相关的MX和光谱方面有用户程序，而在生物材料中金属的荧光成像中也将有一个。 NSLS-II的非凡亮度将提供前所未有的小，明亮且良好的X射线梁。为了利用这些品质，将要谨慎地提供来自NSLS-II光束的最佳质量晶体划分和X射线散射数据，并提供高水平的自动化。将安装多种实验模式，用于X射线散射，以研究溶液，膜和组织。我们预计该项目的成功很大，部分归功于从波士顿到华盛顿的400英里长的走廊的杰出生活科学研究人员社区，所有这些都在BNL的驾驶范围内，以及在NSL终生期间为该社区提供了结构生物学生产力的稳固记录。
