The MacCHESS BioSAXS Essentials minicourse filled up just a few days after we made the announcement over a week ago. Hopefully the overflow will find their way to Brookhaven and other places. To date, there has NOT been a lot of interest among potential organizers in holding such a course at the annual American Crystallographic Association meeting.
Given the intense interest in the subject, I would like to know if any of you CCP4 readers would be interested in attending a lecture-only BioSAXS HOWTO workshop at the ACA meeting in Hawaii 2013. Please be realistic, I know many would LIKE to go ... but would you actually be able to go? I would also be interested in hearing from any interested potential organizers. (Please also keep in mind that SAS2012 is in Australia Nov 2012, so that may make a difference in your travel plans).
