English Edition: Meet Thomas White from DESY (German Electron Synchrotron) who is the creator and maintainer of the tool CrystFEL. The tool to help understand and analyse the structure of materials such as crystals and proteins. Thomas and I dive into the details of the science and experimental setup - and, of course, the software tool he created.
