[phenixbb] CCP4 Study Weekend 2024 - Early bird registration including standard student bursary deadline coming soon!

[Karen McIntyre - STFC UKRI]

Dear all,

Registration is open for the 2024 CCP4 study weekend entitled "Decision making in MX - how to be a productive structural biologist".

This year we are focusing on decision-making in macromolecular crystallography: when to use what automated tool, how to interpret the output and when you need to get your hands dirty instead. The frontiers of crystallography now involve massive multi-crystal and multi-dimensional experiments. This means the more that you can leave to the automated pipelines, the more you can focus on the novel elements of your experiment. Sometimes those automated tools work, and sometimes they fail (but have maybe not told you exactly why or how). Sometimes they don't even exist. In that case, how can you return to the basics and develop new strategies to break down the barriers to publication?

Once again, this year the CCP4 Study Weekend will be held as a hybrid event from the 3rd to 5th January 2024, enabling people to choose whether to attend in-person or virtually. The in-person event will be held at the East Midlands Conference Centre, Nottingham, UK.


We would like to invite you to another iteration of the ever-popular CCP4 Study Weekend - to start the year 2024 with a lot of fresh ideas, new insights and (hopefully) new friends and contacts to boost. As always it will be an eclectic mix of bleeding-edge science, in-depth presentations, discussion panel, poster-sessions, hands-on tutorials and plenty of opportunities for social interactions including the ceilidh. For full details, programme, logistics and registration, please visit the Study Weekend website<https://studyweekend.ccp4.ac.uk/>.



Important Key Dates:
* Early bird registration final date: 19 November 2023;
* Standard Student bursaries are open to all students registering during early bird period i.e. now until 19 November which cover the cost of registration plus one night accommodation;
* Registration for in-person delegates closes 4 December 2023 (or earlier if in-person places sell out although you will be able to join the in-person waitlist).

We hope to see you there!
