Dear colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the 8th South American Macromolecular 
Crystallography School 2021 "Structural Biology to enhance high impact research 
in health and disease” to be held from Sep 20 to Oct 1, 2021
Please find the application form and further information at 
http://pasteur.uy/novedades/mx2021/

The application deadline is June 30, 2021. For further inquiries contact 
mx2...@pasteur.edu.uy

Main Topics:
· data collection (remotely @ Diamond synchrotron);
· data processing;
· phasing and structure determination;
· model refinement and validation.

25 participants will be selected, prioritizing advanced PhD students, postdocs 
and young researchers. No registration fee, please look in the www site for 
details on application procedures.
Participants will have the opportunity to collect data from their own crystals 
at Diamond Light Source synchrotron via remote access, with the assistance of 
Diamond staff.
The workshop will be virtual considering the pandemics constraints. It will 
combine excellent lectures with hands-on problem-solving sessions. Tutorials of 
state-of-the-art software will include XDS, Dials, Phaser, ShelX, Coot, Refmac, 
Buster-TNT, PISA, among others.
Since the workshop is virtual additional participants may elect to attend 
lectures only. If you wish to do this please complete the registration form and 
indicate that this is your choice.
