Yesterday, we participated in the #Mainz Carnival alongside the @sfb1551! This was an amazing experience, and with over 600,000 people watching, it was a fantastic way to show how fun science can be!

You can find the recording here, starting at 45:50 👉 https://t.co/Yz4bnscPci

Protein clumps in the brain are tied to neurodegenerative diseases, but measuring them is difficult.

@EMBLHamburg's #SAXS experts & @LemkeLab developed a technique to measure clumping with anomalous X-ray scattering in solution.
