Synchrotron radiation circular dichroism (SRCD) is a well established technique in structural biology. The first UV‐VIS beamline, dedicated to circular dichroism, at Diamond Light Source Ltd, a third‐generation synchrotron facility in south Oxfordshire, UK, has recently become operational and it is...
