Welcome to the home page of the Virginia Tech Crystallography Laboratory! We are a colocated facility of the Departments of GeoSciences, Chemistry and Biology, within the College of Science
The laboratory was officially opened in 2001 by the then Dean of Arts and Sciences, Robert Bates.
The laboratory provides crystallographic services to the University, conducts inter-disciplinary research, and teaches crystallography to students and faculty: For information on our staff, their research, and the capabilities of the instruments follow the links on the left. For information about our crystal-structure services, see Crystallographic Services Teaching: We hold Crystallography Summer Workhops for faculty and students at Virginia Tech other Universities in the region, and teach two 5000-level crystallography courses to VT students. Virginia Tech Structural Biology Symposium
is an annual event hosted by the Crystallography Laboratory to highlight structural biology research on campus.
Pictures and information
are available at the Symposium home page. The fourth symposium will be held on Friday 27th March, 2009.Safety
Before starting to work in the Crystallography Laboratory, you must read the page on safety rules and pass
