Just because we have modern technology doesn't mean we have socially made progress or for that matter made mental progress regarding women in science, which in my opinion is a huge mistake . Despite many efforts, many fields are still very male dominated.

Gentleman, a little bit of effort would go a long way. Apologies for my observation but I think this is important. ________________________________ From: CCP4 bulletin board <CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK><mailto:CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK> on behalf of Kleine, Irmtraud <irmtraud.kle...@cfel.de><mailto:irmtraud.kle...@cfel.de> Sent: Friday, November 25, 2016 10:52 AM To: CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK<mailto:CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK> Subject: [ccp4bb] 5th Banff Meeting on Structural Dynamics, 18/19th Febr. - 22nd February 2017 Dear all, This is to remind you of the 5th Banff Meeting on Structural Dynamics https://banff2017.desy.de/ which will take place 18/19th February – 22nd February 2017.
