We are glad to announce the call for synchrotron beamtime applications
in biological small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and macromolecular
crystallography (MX) for the period February - December 2022. The
following EMBL beamlines at PETRA III are available: P12 (SAXS), P13 and
P14 including the T-REXX endstation (MX). For both SAXS and MX,
instrumentation for pump-probe time-resolved experiments is in place.
Submission of BAG (Block Allocation Group) proposals is strongly
encouraged for SAXS and MX. Groups applying for beamtime to work on
several projects during 2022 are requested to submit their research
proposals via a BAG application and not as several individual proposals
(even if the BAG only consists of a single research group).
Please bear in mind that remote and mail-in operation will remain the
default access route for all EMBL beamlines as long as necessary during
2022 due to the Corona pandemic.
Please note: COVID-19 related proposals requiring rapid access can be
submitted at any time; contact the User Office directly for more
information about the submission process.
The deadline for submission of proposals for 2022 is:
*Monday, 18th October 2021* (midnight CET).
After this date, the proposals will be evaluated by an external Project
Evaluation Committee and the users will be informed about the results of
their application(s) in early January 2022.
A detailed description of the three beamlines and links to the
electronic proposal forms can be found at:

Submit a proposal via the EMBL Hamburg user portal:

Access to the EMBL Hamburg facilities also includes assistance with
crystallisation, sample preparation and, in combination with an EMBL
beamline visit, with sample characterisation and optimisation.
The usage of the beamlines and biophysical facilities can in part be
supported by the EC iNEXT-Discovery
<https://inext-discovery.eu/network/inext-d/home> project and
Instruct-ERIC <https://instruct-eric.eu/>.
