Dynamo Workshop for Subtomogram Averaging

The workshop will provide hands-on training on all practical aspects of subtomogram averaging, encompassing all stages of the pipeline: tomogram visualization and archiving, particle picking in different geometries, averaging, refinement and classification. In addition to these core contents on subtomo processing, this year we will conduct a longer workshop, covering also generic data analysis tasks in cryo electron tomography, as alignment of tilt series, tomogram reconstruction, advanced scripting and management of large data sets.

No previous experience is required and participants of all levels are welcome and strongly encouraged to bring along their own data. Computing infrastructure for intense numerical experiments will be provided in place, including guidance for the use of GPUs in the Amazon cloud computing services.

The registration fee is 280 CHF (accommodation is not included), deadline is July the 6th. As we can only provide a limited number of workstations, we typically accept participants on a "first come - first serve? basis. Please do not hesitate to contact me for any questions.
