We study the dynamics and function of membranes and proteins, using x-ray and neutron scattering techniques. With our equipment, we prepare and characterize artificial and biological membranes, composed of different types of lipids, membrane active molecules and proteins and peptides. Our goal is to study proteins at work and understand the influence of membrane composition and properties on protein interactions and function.
We are working closely with the Canadian Neutron Beam Centre in Chalk River, where we do most of the neutron experiments.
