######################################################## We would hereby like to announce the 4th edition of the workshop "Diffraction Data Collection Using Synchrotron Radiation", which will take place from June 13-15, 2013 at the BESSY II storage ring of the Helmholtz- Zentrum Berlin for Materials and Energy (HZB) in Berlin.
This workshop is the successor to three previous successful workshops, which took place in 2007, 2009 and 2011. It is sponsored by the German Society for Crystallography (DGK) and organised by the DGK Working Group 1 (Biological Structures) in cooperation with Dr. Manfred Weiss and Dr. Uwe Mueller. The workshop comprises a series of basic lectures on the topic and two extended practical sessions. It is aimed at PhD students in Biological Crystallography with little or no experience in diffraction data collection at a synchrotron. The practical sessions will take place at the MX beamlines located at the electron storage ring BESSY II. The workshop fee is 60 EUR for DGK-members and 75 EUR for non-members. This fee covers all conference material as well as board and lodging for two nights on the campus in Berlin-Adlershof. For more information please visit the web page http://www.helmholtz-berlin.de/bessy-mx-workshop/ Registration is now open. Since the number of students will have to be limited to 20 in order to ensure that the practical sessions run efficiently, we expect that the workshop will fill up quickly. Participants are also expected to present a poster on their own work. As previously, the best poster will be awarded with an attractive prize. ############################################################## Manfred Weiss & Uwe Mueller -- Dr. Manfred. S.
