Dear Colleagues,
This is just a gentle reminder that the deadline for applications
for synchrotron beam time 2009 at the EMBL Hamburg is on January 13.
With best regards,
Victor Lamzin
Call for access to Synchrotron Beamline Facilities 2009
EMBL Hamburg, Germany
We announce a call for synchrotron beam time applications in biological
small-angle scattering (SAXS) and X-ray crystallography (PX). Up to 32
weeks of beam time will be available at the DORIS storage ring (DESY)
from March 2009 to February 2010.
EMBL Hamburg will operate the following beamlines:
Beamline New features Scientist responsible
X33 SAXS Automated and remote operation Dmitri Svergun
X11 PX MAR555 Flat Panel detector Paul Tucker
X12 PX MAD, S-SAD, fluorescence analysis Manfred Weiss
X13 PX Microspec, expert data collection Matthew Groves
BW7A* PX High flux, multilayer optics Andrea Schmidt
BW7B* PX Automated sample changer MARVIN Santosh Panjikar
*These beamlines are used as Petra-III test facilities and therefore will
be only temporarily available.
The deadline for submission of proposals is January 13, 2009.
An external Priorities Committee will assess the proposals.
Electronic beam proposal forms and a detailed description of the beamline
facilities are available at www.embl-hamburg.de and
www.embl-hamburg.de/facilities
Access to the EMBL Hamburg high-throughput crystallisation facility is
available via www.embl-hamburg.de/services/crystallisation
EMBL is constructing three new beamlines for applications in biological
X-ray crystallography (PX) and small-angle scattering (SAXS) at the Petra-III
synchrotron storage ring, which are scheduled to be available from 2010/11.
See www.embl-hamburg.de/services/petra for further information.

Access to the EMBL Hamburg facilities will be supported by the European
Commission, Research Infrastructure Action under the FP7 "ELISA (European
Light Sources Activities)".
