Who We Are
—
Accelerated Muscle Biotechnologies (AMB) strives to provide access and support to small-angle X-ray diffraction experiments (see Our Services) for muscle scientists around the world. At our core, we’re a team of career research scientists in skeletal and cardiac muscle mechanics and exercise physiology with offices in Boston (USA) and Hamburg (Germany). We recognize the value of X-ray diffraction technologies and our mission is to accelerate its integration into academic, biotech, and healthcare markets.

Breakthrough Study on TNNT1-Related Muscle Weakness
April 15, 2025
ICYMI: Some very interesting details coming out of the Ochala group led by Jenni Laitila! We conducted an Xray diffraction experiment for this breakthrough study on TNNT1-related muscle weakness.
What if a rare muscle disorder could be reversed with a targeted therapy?

What People Are Saying
“Accelerated Muscle Biotechnologies (AMB) has been a game-changer for my research. AMB has allowed me to use sophisticated structural methods that would otherwise be difficult or impossible for me to pursue on my own. Their professional and knowledgeable staff of researchers and scientists are a joy to work with starting from project design all the way to data collection, analysis, and publication. In addition, AMB has provided training and support for graduate students, postdocs, and technicians in my lab, thus extending valuable training opportunities for all my lab members. I therefore highly recommend AMB to other Principal Investigators who would like to add X-ray scattering methods to their experimental toolkit while providing unique opportunities for their trainees.”
