The registration deadline is approaching at January 15th.
For those of you who are interested within this field, a limited number
of additional participants can still be accepted at this venue.
Here are some details:
Winter School on Soft X-rays in Macromolecular Crystallography, February
18-20th, 2009
at BESSY-II, Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin für Materialien und Energie.
The third Winter School on Soft X-rays in Macromolecular Crystallography
(after Seefeld in 2006 and Bressanone in 2003) will bring together
experts from different fields, which are key-players in the developments
and further utilization of Soft X-ray applications in structural biology
with the users of this modern methodology.
The three days school will cover the following topics: (1) the design of
soft X-ray sources, (2) the design of beamlines optimized for soft X-ray
research, (3) new detectors, (4) optimal data collection procedures for
soft X-ray diffraction, (5) new derivatization methods of biological
macromolecules, (6) long wavelength approaches to increase the anomalous
scattering of sulfur and other natively occurring anomalous scatterers,
(7) treatment of soft X-ray data, (from processing towards the phasing
and phase improvements), (8) radiation damage and its utilization to
gain structural information. Scientific contributions from participants
with examples of Soft X-ray related structural studies will be included
in the program as well.
