Found crystals usable for x-rays at A3, A4, D3 from vapor crystallation technique. Will be making photos of the crystals. Sat in on grad seminar. Dr. Fromme served cake to grad students for their birthday. The atmoshere was one of comraderie and collaboration. Student Rob Lawrence was having some trouble with his data- overexpressing a C subunit of spinach in E. coli. Several suggestions were given and an effort was sincerely made to explain this to us and we were not treated as if we were clueless either. Very nice.
Later, we took pictures of our crystals with a computer. Very sensitive and not as easy as it looked and I broke one of the capillaries so it had to be resealed. Liked the decision theatre but will write more on that in the wiki.
