Radiocristallographie de virus (étude des cristaux par rayonnement). Des micro-boucles en nylon au bout d'une tige métallique permettent de prélever un cristal de sa liqueur mère, de le tremper dans une solution cryo-protectrice, et de le plonger ensuite dans un tube contenant de l'éthane liquide pour un refroidissement rapide, ce qui préserve le pouvoir de diffraction du cristal.

Our work is guided by the way scientists question the world around them and we translate their research into images to help people to understand the world better and to awaken their curiosity and wonderment.
