> Electron Crystallography Workshop, UC Davis California (Aug 7-11, 2006)
>
> We have the pleasure of announcing the opening of registration for a
> one-week International Workshop on Electron crystallography to be
> held at UC Davis, California (August 7-11, 2006).
>
> The workshop has two major aims:
>
> 1) Training: To provide a unique forum to train skilled biochemists and
> electron microscopists (PhD, Post docs and beyond), in state-of-the-
> art 2D crystallization, electron crystallography data collection and
> image processing.
>
> Topics will cover all aspects of electron crystallography, including:
> - Membrane protein solubilisation and crystallization
> - Sample preparation for electron microscopy
> - Cryo-EM data collection by image recording and electron diffraction
> - Image processing, including an introduction to the new software
> systems IPLT and 2dx
> - Data evaluation and model building
>
> 2) Advancing the technology: To bring together many of the leading
> groups in electron crystallography to forge innovative collaborations
> for new technology development.
>
> Workshop format: The format of the workshop will be similar to the
> EMBO courses in that lectures will be held in the morning, practicals
> in the afternoon, student poster session before dinner, and science
> talks in the evening. However the workshop will be focusing
> exclusively on electron crystallography related topics.
>
> Registration: The workshop is currently limited to 20 participants.
> The fee for academic participants is US$200, which includes board and
> lodging (twin room). Registration can be completed at http://2dx.org/
> workshop before the deadline of 1 June 2006.
