We are pleased to announce that applications are now open for the 11th joint Diamond-CCP4 Workshop on MX data collection and structure solution! Bringing together leading experts in the field of MX to teach best practice in data collection and analysis, this course is aimed at PhD students, postdocs and early career scientists who have a focus on structural biology.
This is an in-person workshop, based at Diamond Light Source in the UK, but will be preceded by two remote setup days on Zoom prior to the on-site element. We will make use of a Slack workspace through the course.
It is essential that applicants commit to attending the workshop in its entirety. Please note below the workshop days and timings involved:
- First online preparation day (before fishing crystals): Tuesday 29 October
- Second online preparation day (before data collection): Tuesday 19 November
- On-site: Monday 25 November to Monday 2 December
- Day off: Saturday 30 November
There is no fee to attend this online workshop, however attendance will be subject to an application process and a letter of support from the attendee's supervisor will be required. Both the application form and supervisor's letter of support will need to be submitted by 17:00 (UK time) on 16 September.
Some prior experience of crystallography and data collection is expected, and those who already have an interesting project (crystals and possibly previously collected datasets) will be given priority in selection.
