crystallographers
Atomic arrangement analysts
Crystallographers are scientists who study the arrangement of atoms in crystalline solids.
They use techniques like X-ray diffraction to determine molecular structures, work that has been essential to advances in chemistry, biology, and materials science.
Crystallographers mapped the double helix structure of DNA.
