CCP-EM are pleased to announce the eleventh CCP-EM Spring Symposium. As ever the conference aims to provide a forum to highlight state of the art developments in computational cryoEM and related themes as well as showcasing outstanding recent biological applications. They aim to promote an inclusive, friendly atmosphere welcoming both old and new to the community. Topics include instrument technology, sample preparation, image processing, single particle reconstruction, tomography and model building.

The meeting also includes the Diamond Light Source Biological Cryo-Imaging User Meeting for eBIC & B24 and associated satellite meetings for correlative microscopy (eBIC), electron diffraction (eBIC), membrane protein lab (DLS), HexAuFoil user group meeting (Quantifoil) and a Thermo Fisher meeting on advances in SPA

The conference will take place in person at Nottingham EMCC and virtually via Zoom.
