Instruct PartnerApplications now open!
The 13th jointly organised Diamond-CCP4 Data Collection and Structure Solution Workshop on practical macromolecular crystallography (MX) will take place across two online days and eight in-person days.
The workshop will bring together leading experts in the field of MX to teach best practice in data collection and analysis. It is intended for graduate students, postdoctoral researchers and early career scientists in the area of structural biology. Some experience of crystallography and data collection is expected, and applications who can bring an interesting project with them (crystals and previously collected datasets) will be favoured.
Timings and format
The main part of the course will take place across eight days, ensuring a wide programme is covered and enough breaks and networking opportunities are provided. Students are expected to attend the full workshop, including the two preparation days, as follows:
The workshop will consist of presentations and tutorials delivered by experts in the field, plus one day of data collection time at Diamond's excellent MX beamlines. Successful applicants will be able to work alongside experts on their own projects, tackling all aspects of structure solution, from data collection through to phasing, refinement and validation.
Application
Attendance will be subject to an application process and supervisors will be asked to submit a letter of support to back up the application.
Applications are now open, with a closing date of Friday 11 September at 17:00.
All applicants will be informed about the result of their application in the week commencing Monday 21 September.
