Time-resolved serial femtosecond crystallography (TR-SFX) using X-ray free electron laser can capture transient structures of proteins at work and thus is a powerful strategy to make Molecular Movies. However, complementary techniques are also required to interpret the obtained data and decipher the structural dynamics at an atomic resolution. In this symposium, we focus on the nonequilibrated dynamics of photoreceptive proteins revealed by various techniques, such as structural analyses, theoretical calculations, and time-resolved spectroscopy. We will discuss the latest outcomes and the future of time-resolved structural analyses including TR-SFX.
