Neutron Source (SNS).
Over expression and purification of target recombinant proteins for
neutron diffraction studies.
Collaborate with scientists in Oak Ridge National Laboratory and other
research institutions to fabricate samples for neutron scattering
experiments.
Travel to other neutron sources to execute neutron scattering
experiments and analyze the experimental data.
Publish research results in scientific journals
Assist MaNDi instrument scientist (Leighton Coates) and the design team
to ensure that the design meets the user community requirements
