The course aims to impart the theoretical and practical basis for the 3-dimensional structure determination of bio-macromolecules using Anomalous Dispersion techniques (SAD & MAD) to young scientists who intend to apply these methods in macromolecular crystallography. Through a series of lectures, software demonstrations, practicals on the ESRF beamlines and tutorials, participants will get insights into all aspects of the structure determination process including beamline instrumentation, data collection and processing, heavy atom substructure determination, phasing and model building. There will also be sessions focusing on automated structure solution procedures and newer methods. Additional sessions will include presentations of distinguished structures solved with these techniques. The number of participants is limited to 20 and the deadline for application is March 10th, 2013. Additional information, course programme and instructions to apply to the course can be found in the course webpages: http://events.embo.org/13-crystallography/ Confirmed invited speakers include: Andreas Bracher, Kay Diederichs, Rita Giordano, Adrian Goldman, Wolfgang Kabsch, Gordon Leonard, Airlie McCoy, Sean McSweeney, Christoph Müller-Dieckmann, Max Nanao, Alexander Popov, Harry Powell, Thomas Terwilliger, Andrew Thompson, Isabel Uson, Clemens Vonhrein -- ἀρετή --------------------------------------- Daniele de Sanctis, PhD Structural Biology Group ESRF, Grenoble, France Tel 33 (0)4 76 88 2869
