Benno Schoenborn (foreground) and Paul Langan of the Los Alamos Protein Crystallography Station (PCS), where scientists are learning the secrets of how enzymes do their work. The technique they use, neutron protein crystallography, was invented by Schoenborn many years ago, but the PCS has made it practical for scientists worldwide. Photo by LeRoy Sanchez.
