Decades of careful experimentation and analysis by biophysical chemists
have formed a foundation for contemporary scientists to understand the
structure and function of proteins in the incredibly complex environments
of living organisms. Recent advances in experimental and computational
approaches have made it possible to describe and predict the structure,
dynamics, and interactions of biomolecular assemblies in complex
environments in vitro, in situ, in cells, and in the extracellular
environment. Despite these exciting advances, many challenges remain in
integrating techniques and approaches that span multiple time and length
scales, and in understanding how atomic level changes drive functional
biological outputs in the cellular environment. The symposium will bring
together experimentalists and theorists who apply cutting-edge methods to
determine the structure of biomolecules at or near atomic level precision
in such environments. Speakers will discuss recent progress in the field
and future challenges in the areas (1) atomic resolution studies of large
complexes, (2) biomolecular condensation, (3) in situ studies in cell and
cell-like environments, (4) in vitro cellular environments, and (5)
biophysical experiments in multi-cellular environments.
 
The abstract deadline is October 17, 2022

In-person only. 10am-5pm with networking 5pm-6.30pm AEST.

The aim of the symposium is to highlight exciting research involving cryo-EM, including the latest including the latest developments in the field as well as their application to biological questions. IT will be held in person.

A symposium in Dr. Kenneth Taylor's honor to celebrate his lab's accomplishments and to highlight advances in cryo-EM and muscle research. The symposium will feature many notable National Academy investigators whose research focusses on muscle biology and cryo-EM.

It will run 8:30 AM - 5:30 PM on May 13th and 14th and will be in person only. Lunch and coffee breaks will be provided. Registration is required, and attendance will be capped. Please secure your spot by submitting your registration ASAP here.

The Polish Synchrotron Radiation Society (PSRS) has been organizing this International School and Symposium on Synchrotron Radiation (ISSRNS) since 1991. The aim of this interdisciplinary meeting is to bring together scientists and students working with synchrotron radiation. The meeting will focus on novel applications of synchrotron radiation in physics, chemistry, materials and life sciences.

The programme of the Symposium will comprise invited lectures (40 min), oral presentations (20 min), short contributions (10 min) and poster presentations. The short contributions are for students to present their research results. The official language of the meeting is English.

The symposium will gather leading experts in the field of electron and light microscopy. We will hear about the latest breakthroughs in technology development and application from our outstanding speakers, including the three Nobel laureates Stefan Hell, Richard Henderson and W. E. Moerner.

8:00-9:30 AM (Pacific Time)
