Dear colleagues,
We are pleased to announce the
Seventh edition of the Macromolecular Crystallography School
2016, to be held at the Institute Química-Física Rocasolano- CSIC
(Madrid, Spain).
Dates: May 25 - 29, 2016
Invited speakers and tutors:
Paul Adams, Berkeley, USA
Pavel Afonine, Berkeley, USA
Armando Albert, Madrid, Spain

Applicants:
The workshop has been designed for postgraduate, postdoctoral
and research scientists that deal with macromolecular
crystallography but need further knowledge on the routine uses,
the state of the art and fundamentals that underlie the modern
techniques for macromolecular crystallography. The topics will
cover crystallographic computing and fundamentals using XDS, CCP4
and Phenix, as well as the state of the art on topics such as the
strategies for protein production, phasing with ARCCIMBOLDO, SHELX
and SIR2014, modeling with COOT and low resolution techniques.
MCS2016 will provide five days of lectures and workshops. The
course is designed for 25 highly motivated students.
Requests to participate must be sent by a free-formated E-mail,
before March 28, 2016 to the following address:
[email protected], indicating the
motivation to participate and experience on macromolecular
crystallography and including a letter of recommendation from PhD
Director (only for PhD students).
Accepted participants will be notified by e-mail before April
4, 2016.
