Dear colleagues, We are pleased to announce our sixth edition of the Workshop:
Macromolecular Crystallography School "From data processing to structure refinement and beyond", to be held at the Institut Pasteur de Montevideo (Uruguay). This Workshop will cover all aspects of the macromolecular structure determination process using X ray crystallography: starting from data processing, through phasing and refinement to structure completion and analysis. Integrative methods are also being included. In particular, this year an introduction to cryo-electron microscopy has been added to the program. http://pasteur.uy/mx2017 <http://pasteur.uy/mx2017> Dates: November 13 - 23, 2017 Confirmed speakers and tutors: Alejandro Buschiazzo, Montevideo, Uruguay Grzegorz Chojnowski, Hamburg, Germany Paul Emsley, Cambridge, UK Richard Garrat, São Carlos, Brazil James Holton, San Francisco/Berkeley/Palo Alto, USA Ronan Keegan, Oxford, UK Eugene Krissinel, Oxford, UK Andrey Lebedev, Oxford, UK Andrew Leslie, Cambridge, UK Garib Murshudov, Cambridge, UK Colin Palmer, Oxford, UK James Parkhurst, Oxford, UK Randy Read, Cambridge, UK Clemens Vonrhein, Cambridge, UK Please find the program of the Workshop, the application form and further contact information, at http://pasteur.uy/mx2017 <http://pasteur.uy/mx2017> This Workshop is supported by the Collaborative Computational Project Nº4 (CCP4, UK) & Science and Technology Facilities Council (UK); the Centro de Biologia Estructural del Mercosur (CeBEM); the International Union of Crystallography (IUCr); and the Institut Pasteur de Montevideo.
