Lab Fun Day at the Lemke Lab!

On Wednesday 18.08, we headed to the Rhein to soak up the sunshine, enjoy the fresh air, and relax by the water. It was the perfect mix of a laid-back atmosphere, playful splashing, and a delicious barbecue—all in wonderful company! ☀️🌊🍔

Protein clumps in the brain are tied to neurodegenerative diseases, but measuring them is difficult.

EMBL Hamburg’s SAXS team and @lemkelab.bsky.social developed an approach to quantitatively characterise clumping with anomalous X-ray scattering in solution.
