BEAM Platform (Biophysics, Engineering and Analysis of Macromolecules) is a pilot platform offered by the Barabas group at the MOCEL department to provide services for molecular characterization of proteins, nucleic acids and their ligands to research groups at the University of Geneva. BEAM brings together services across biophysics measurement, X-ray crystallography structure determination, data analysis and molecular modelling to support researchers in their projects across diverse fundamental and biomedical topics.
