We would like to remind students that it one week to the application deadline (1st May) for the BCA/CCP4 Summer School in Protein Crystallography to be held at Diamond (UK) from Tuesday 26th August to Sunday 31st August 2014. We would also like to remind referees that references are due by 8th May 2014. The original announcement below contains the relevant links: The BCA/CCP4 Protein Crystallography Summer School is intended for students and researchers new to crystallography. Its dual aims are to provide comprehensive training in crystallography and to promote best practise within the British crystallographic community. The lectures cover the gamut of techniques required for a structure solution, from protein expression through to structure validation. Intensively supervised computer tutorials enable students to relate the theory presented in the lectures to practise. Although CCP4 programs will primarily be used in these tutorials, the aim will be to approach crystallographic questions in a software-agnostic manner. There will also be a crystal manipulation and cooling workshop. Note that the course is scheduled during Diamond synchrotron downtime, so there will not be active data collection at the Diamond beamlines.
