Advanced Diffraction Techniques for Biology (ADTB)

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 4-day course will combine theoretical lectures and practicals on the 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 19 to November 22, 2019 at the EPN campus,
Grenoble, France. To apply, please, send a short CV (1 page max.) and a motivation letter
to [email protected] before September 30, 2019.

The registration is free and includes accommodation and meals on the EPN campus.
Selected applicants will be notified by e-mail by October 15, 2019. Participants will have to
pay for their travel expenses. More details about the workshop can be found on the
dedicated web site: http:// workshops.ibs.fr/adtb-2019

ADTB is funded by IBS, EMBL, ESRF, CBS, FRISBI, CRISTECH, AFC, UGA, Grenoble
