Hello Everybody,
The ESRF Users' Meeting, to be held in Grenoble from 4-6 February 2013,
will focus on plans for Phase II of the ESRF Upgrade Programe. Current
proposals include a major upgrade of the existing ESRF storage ring
which will boost brilliance by a factor of 30 or more, providing access
to flux densities in excess of 10^14 photon/s/micron^2 .
In parallel with this year's Users' Meeting we are organising a workshop
'Seeing is believing: the future of Structural Biology'. The aims of the
workshop are to present technical details of the proposed upgrade, to
outline ideas for new scientific opportunities that will arise, to
explore the limits of Structural Biology at a synchrotron source and to
promote meaningful discussions between the ESRF and its User Community
that will help formulate the scientific case for the future of
Structural Biology at the ESRF.
The program for the Workshop along with details of how to register for
both the workshop and the Users' Meeting can be found at:

I encourage as many of our current and future users to attend.
With very best wishes for 2013.
Yours
Gordon
