Independent Principal Research Fellow Jon Nield, Ph.D. enquiry_at_jonnield_dot_com Local equipment previously used in researching photosynthetic complexes: - for structural studies
Instrumentation (JEOL 1230 / JEOL 2010 / JEOL JEM 2100plus TEMs) used to digitally record image data via CCD prior to single particle image processing across a wide range of local and collaborative projects. Pre-2007, data for single particle image averaging projects were gained through the use of FEI (Philips) CM100 (100 keV), Tecnai T12 (120 keV) or CM200 (200 keV) FEG (Field Emission Gun; liquid Nitrogen-cooled) transmission electron microscopes.
A Linux cluster for the group, upgraded and reconfigured 2014-2015 (160-CPU, 336 Gb RAM, GPGPUs) for local image-processing + HEDT workstations, Threadripper/GTX systems. I was a co-PI member of the LonCEMcommunity. - for investigating biochemical function
