Thanks to rotating anode advances, home labs now rival synchrotrons. As Simon Coles says, if diffraction fails in Southampton, it likely won't show at Diamond either. Full interview link in comments.

New paper out! 📄
We refined our single-NOESY method for bicalutamide in scCO₂.
Result: 24% open / 76% closed conformers — consistent with earlier work ✅ Robust methodology confirmed.
