Student/postdoc fellowships for Understanding Biology through Structure, March 16-20, 2020
by Tom Terwilliger 27 Aug '19

27 Aug '19

Hi Structural biologists, particularly students and postdocs! Student/postdoc fellowships still available for Understanding Biology through Structure 2020 (https://cvent.me/4kq9P, March 16-20, 2020 in Santa Fe,NM). The fellowships cover registration and hotel (you still have to get there) and are being awarded after registration on a competitive rolling basis based on a publication you upload. Speakers at the symposium will be encouraged to present sufficient background and experimental detail so that students can understand the significance, promise, and limitations of their work. Each talk will have a full 10 minutes of discussion (15 minutes for Keynote talks). Moderators for each session will help include students and postdocs in the discussion. Students and postdocs will have many opportunities to talk with more senior researchers at conference breaks, meals, receptions and poster sessions. The last conference was a huge success (see https://bit.ly/2Gfkm4t and https://bit.ly/2Gg39rm) and this one is looking great (see https://cvent.me/4kq9P) We have a super group of speakers (keynote speakers are Ilme Schlichting, David Stuart, Erica Ollmann Saphire, Robert Stroud, Suzanne Scarlata, David Eisenberg, Wayne Hendrickson, Yvonne Jones, Eva Nogales, and Tom Blundell) After the main conference there will be an optional Phenix workshop with lectures and hands-on sessions on using Phenix for crystallography and cryo-EM. You can register now at https://cvent.me/4kq9P !

CCTBX documentation questionnaire
by Dorothee Liebschner 19 Aug '19

19 Aug '19

Hi everyone, During this year's ECM computing school, it came up that the CCTBX does not have a lot of documentation. This seems to be a major reason why people don't use it, even if they would like to employ the libraries. We would like to find out which parts of the CCTBX are the most interesting for users. We certainly cannot provide extensive documentation for the entire toolbox, but we can see what we can do once we know the main areas of interest. So if you were in the situation of wanting to use the CCTBX but decided to stay away from it because the documentation was non-existent or obscure, please let us know by filling out the questionnaire below (it's anonymous): questionnaire CCTBX documentation <https://forms.gle/9RawJFfHyEvhCVVP7> Best wishes, Dorothee -- Project Scientist, Molecular Biophysics and Integrated Bioimaging Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory 1 Cyclotron Road, M/S 33R0345 Berkeley, CA 94720 Tel: (510) 486-5709 Fax: (510) 486-5909 Web: https://phenix-online.org
