1st Workshop on Advanced Diffraction Techniques for Biology - 05-09 November 2018 - EPN campus, Grenoble

It is our pleasure to announce the first workshop on Advanced Diffraction Techniques for Biology in the EPN campus at Grenoble, France.
The course will cover X-rays, neutrons and electrons diffraction by crystals of biological macromolecules. Various techniques will be investigated :
• Macromolecular crystal growth
• In situ (in plate) X-ray diffraction
• Serial X-ray crystallography
• Time resolved X-ray crystallography
• Neutron diffraction
• Electron diffraction of nano-crystals
with the aim of solving de novo structures, searching ligands, elucidating reaction mechanisms...
This 1-week course will combine theoretical lectures and practicals on ESRF beamlines and other EPN instruments. It is dedicated to researchers (advanced PhD, PostDoc, Scientist) interested in macromolecular structural studies at atomic resolution using crystallographic approaches.
The course will take place from November 05 to November 09, 2018 at the EPN campus, Grenoble, France. To apply, please, send a short CV (1 page max.) and a motivation letter to marta.elzo-aizarna@ibs.fr before September 15, 2018.
The registration is free and includes accommodation and meals on the EPN campus. Selected applicants will be notified by e-mail on September 30, 2018. Participants will have to pay for their travel expenses. More details about the workshop can be found on the dedicated web site.
ADTB is funded by IBS, EMBL, ESRF, CBS, FRISBI, CRISTECH, AFC, UGA, Grenoble INP, CNRS, CEA
