Advanced Diffraction Techniques for Biology
| - |
In EPN campus, Grenoble
The first workshop on Advanced Diffraction Techniques for Biology will take place at 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 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.
