Dear all, those of you working in the membrane protein and/or carbohydrate field may be very interested in attending a 1 day workshop which will highlight the unique capabilities of the CD beamline B23, at Diamond. The workshop is focused on how the technique can aid your research in these key areas.
The workshop will be a dynamic mix of introducing beamline basics, how to get beamtime, sample requirements & experimental possibilities as well as a series of science case studies from recent users of the beamline and ample time for discussions with both beamline staff and experienced users. There is a limited number of places so register now to avoid disappointment! Full details and registration for the workshop are available from the this link: Diamond B23 circular dichroism beamline Workshop Series / University of Leeds / University of Liverpool<http://www.diamond.ac.uk/Home/Events/B23-Workshop-Series.html> B23 Roadshow Series - Membrane Protein and Carbohydrate Research Workshop Friday 31 May 2013, The Metropole Hotel, Leeds Hosted by: Diamond Light Source, University of Leeds and University of Liverpool On the 31th May 2013, Diamond Light Source (DLS), together with the University of Leeds and University of Liverpool will hold a one-day workshop dedicated to membrane protein and carbohydrate research, with a particular view to promote the synchrotron based CD beamline B23 for these biological materials.
