BioCARS facility operates two experimental stations: one insertion device station, 14-ID-B, with two in-line undulators (U23 and U27) and one bending magnet station: 14-BM-C. (14-BM-D station is no longer in use).

A kappa geometry diffractometer is available in all three BioCARS stations.

All stations and their control areas are embedded in a Biosafety Level 3 (BSL 3) facility, unique at the APS, that permits safe research on bio-hazardous materials, such as pathogenic human viruses.
