VIDEO - Webinar series: Let's Dive into the Atoms! - Large scale facilities: neutrons for life science research, with Zoe Fischer

Neutrons are powerful probes for the study of biological samples as they are very sensitive to hydrogen(H)-rich materials and can discriminate between isotopes of the same element. Due to this property of neutrons, they can be used to observe hydrogen and it’s isotope, deuterium in materials. To…
