Laboratory of Molecular Biology a short sealed off corridor (The Gallery) within the Cavendish laboratory. The MRC built a new Laboratory on the outskirts of Cambridge — the LMB — into which the Unit from the Cavendish moved in early 1962. Additionally, Fred Sanger’s Unit which had been housed in the University’s Biochemistry department joined them, as did Aaron Klug from London. Sanger had invented methods for determining the sequence of amino acids in a protein: he was awarded the Nobel prize for chemistry in 1958 for the first protein sequence, that of insulin. The new laboratory was opened by Queen Elizabeth II in
Laboratory of Instrumentation and Experimental Particles Physics Laboratory of Instrumentation and Experimental Particles Physics The Laboratory of Instrumentation and Experimental Particle Physics (LIP) ("LIP - Laboratório de Instrumentação e Física Experimental de Partículas") is a state-run Portuguese research laboratory created in 1986 under the sponsorship of the National Foundation for Science (FCT) of the Portuguese Ministry of Science, Technology and Higher Education. LIP has three main centers of activity, one in Lisbon, one in Coimbra and one in Braga. The majority of the research activities are done through international collaborations with institutions like CERN. The laboratory has about 180 members, among which are professors and scientists affiliated
