The Institute of Crystallography, part of the Chemistry department of the Free University Berlin, was located at Takustrasse 6. The macromolecular crystallography was on the third floor. It is still there, but the institutional framework has changed, and a new group has moved in. This page reminisces about research done from about 1980 to 2010.
