About the Group

Dr. Frank’s lab is currently working on developing and demonstrating techniques for high-resolution, dynamical imaging of biomolecules and biological nanoparticles with X-ray free-electron lasers, such as the Linac Coherent Light Source at SLAC. He is also working on advanced analytical techniques for the analysis of single cells, aerosol particles, human effluents and breath for applications in national/homeland security and biomedicine. As part of the BioXFEL Center, Dr. Frank, is a leader in the development of gas-phase injectors for single-particles, and has taken a leading role in development of the pump laser systems for time-resolved nanocrystallography. He has worked on various aerosol, electrospray and nebulizer techniques which will contribute to advance the Center’s research.
