FYI, Paul Adams and Tom Terwilliger will both be presenting at this workshop. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "Sanishvili, Ruslan" To: "'[email protected]'" Cc: Date: Fri, 2 Mar 2012 14:22:53 -0600 Subject: Reminder: CCP4 summer school at APS, in USA Dear Colleagues, This is a reminder that the deadline for applications for the 5th annual CCP4 Summer School “From data collection to structure refinement and beyond” is April 17, 2012. The school will take place from June 19 through June 26, 2012 at the Advanced Photon Source (APS) near Chicago. There is no registration fee for the school. The students will be responsible for their own travel and lodging expenses. These and other details (The program, the list of speakers, the application process, accommodations, site access, contacts etc) can be found at the workshop website at http://www.ccp4.ac.uk/schools/APS-2012/index.php The school will include data collection, processing, structure solution, model building, refinement, validation, automation of many steps etc. Participants are encouraged to bring their own crystals, raw data or processed data for hands-on problem solving under the guidance of software developers and other experts.

All details can be found at http://www.ccp4.ac.uk/schools/APS-2012/ Title: "CCP4 school: From data collection to structure refinement and beyond" Dates: June 19 to 26. Site: Advanced Photon Source, Argonne National Laboratory, Argonne, Illinois (Near Chicago), USA The school content: Data collection workshop the first two days: beamline training and data collection on GM/CA-CAT beamlines 23ID-B and 23ID-D. For data collection, only the participants' crystals will be used. Software workshop: The rest of the time after data collection will feature many modern crystallographic software packages taught by authors and other experts. It will be organized in three Sections – lectures, tutorials and hands-on trouble-shooting. There will be model data sets available for tutorials but data, provided by participants, will have higher priority for the hands-on sessions. Applicants: Graduate students, postdoctoral researchers and young scientists at the assistant professor level are encouraged to apply. Only 20 applicants will be selected for participation. Participants of the workshop are strongly encouraged to bring their own problem data sets or crystals so the problems can be addressed during data collection workshop and/or hands-on sessions. Application: Application deadline is April 17. The application form, the program, contact info and other details can be found at http://www.ccp4.ac.uk/schools/APS-2012/ Fees: There is no fee for the workshop. The students will be responsible for their transportation and lodging. The workshop organizers will arrange economical lodging at the Argonne Guest House. The workshop will also cover the expenses for all meals and refreshments. Garib, Ronan and Nukri Ruslan Sanishvili (Nukri), Ph.D. GM/CA-CAT Biosciences Division, ANL 9700 S.
