Dear All, This is a reminder of the joint EMBL-CCP4 training course "European School for Macromolecular Crystallography (ESMAX)", which will take place at the EMBL Hamburg Outstation, the DESY synchrotron site during the period:
Monday November 19th to Monday November 26th, 2012. The ESMAX-2012 school will build upon the traditions of the forefront of training in structural biology – the M2M workshops and the CCP4 crystallography schools and will include a range of activities addressing essential steps in determining biomolecular structures. In particular, the courses will have practicals on the use of synchrotron radiation and beamline equipment, sample handling and carrying out an experiment, followed by an intense course on data processing, structure solution, model building and validation using top-ranked software packages. Speakers and tutors include G. Bourenkov (Hamburg), C. Carolan (Hamburg), M. Cianci (Hamburg), Z. Dauter (Argonne), K. Diederichs (Konstanz), W. Kabsch (Heidelberg), J. Kallio (Hamburg), R.
