Phaser is a program for phasing macromolecular crystal structures with maximum likelihood methods. It has been developed by Randy Read's group at the University of Cambridge and is available through the Phenix and CCP4 software suites, and directly from this site.

This website supersedes http://www-structmed.cimr.cam.ac.uk/phaser/ which is now obsolete
