Dear Colleagues,
due to some last minute requests, the deadline for applications to 
CombStruct2016 (see e-mail below), was postponed to February 29 (next 
monday).
We still have some places left so we encourage you to apply.
All the best,
Jose Artur Brito

Subject: Course on “Integrating X-ray crystallography and scattering 
with electron microscopy” - Oeiras (Portugal)
Date: 21-01-2016 14:03
 From: Jose Artur Brito 
To: [email protected]
Dear Colleagues,
we hereby announce a 4-day course on “Integrating X-ray crystallography 
and scattering with electron microscopy”. The course is funded by i-NEXT 
and will be held at NOVA ITQB, Oeiras (nearby Lisbon), Portugal, May 2 
to 5, 2016.
The course covers a multidisciplinary approach to study the structure of 
challenging proteins, focusing on membrane proteins and large complexes. 
The basic principles will be provided for each addressed technique
(Macromolecular Crystallography, Small Angle X-ray Scattering and 
Electron Microscopy); their applications in biological systems, major 
benefits and limitations will also be discussed.
The Workshop is organized with lectures in the mornings followed by 
hands-on training. The course is aimed primarily at PhD students and 
young Post-Doctoral researchers interested in Structural Biology.
Confirmed speakers are Jose Maria Carazo, Dmitri Svergun and Isabel de 
Moraes.
Participants will be limited to 20. Candidate selection will be based on 
a short CV, a motivation letter from the applicant, and a recommendation 
letter from the supervisor.
Registration deadline is February 23. Please send your application to 
[email protected]. Registration fee is 180Eur including 
accommodation. More information can be found at

The Organizers,
Margarida Archer, José A. Brito (ITQB-UNL) and Jose Maria Carazo 
(CNB-CSIC)
