<div>IBBR is located 20 miles north-west of Washington DC. In IBBR, you will have in-house access to a 200 kV Talos Arctica with a Falcon 3EC DED and a 200 kV Glacios with a K3 DED and a Volta Phase Plate (VPP). We have a Vitrobot Mark IV and a Cp3 cryo-plunger
for sample preparation. We have off-site access to a Titan Krios microscope equipped with DED and VPP. For X-ray crystallography, we have access to a Mosquito crystallization robot. Data collection is usually performed at synchrotrons. Our research is highly
collaborative and is supported by wonderful colleagues who help us out with their expertise in NMR spectroscopy, lipidomics, HDX-MS, MD simulations, computer assisted drug design, and cellular imaging.</div>
