On behalf of The U.S. National Committee for Crystallography (USNC/Cr) of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, I am happy to announce that registration is now open for "EXPLORING STRUCTURAL DATABASE USE IN CRYSTALLOGRAPHY: WORKSHOP SERIES".  The topics will focus on using, developing, and maintaining crystallographic and structural databases- encompassing macromolecular, small molecule, and powder diffraction. We will open the series with a keynote delivered by John Helliwell (IUCr Chair of the Committee on Data) on March 21, 2022 followed by 10 one-day and two-day workshops focused on 8 different structural and crystallographic data resources. An overview of the program can be found in the attached PDF. Graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, faculty members and researchers in any of the crystallographic, diffraction, and imaging sciences affiliated with the International Union of Crystallography (IUCr) are encouraged to register and participate in the training sessions that interest them. Registration for this online series is free. To read more about each session and to register, please visit: https://www.nationalacademies.org/our-work/exploring-structural-database-use... The details about each session can be found by clicking the event pages along with a registration link allows one to register for any combination of the 1 and 2 day sessions (each meeting for 2-4 hrs/day). The workshop series is sponsored by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
