Dear all, I would like to draw your attention to the latest call for proposals for serial femtosecond crystallography (SFX) experiments at the Alvra, Bernina and Cristallina experimental stations of the SwissFEL ARAMIS beamline at PSI: https://www.psi.ch/en/swissfel/users-and-calls.
Proposal submission deadline: 15.09.2023 (midnight CEST time) Proposals evaluated: 16.09.2023 – 31.10.2023 Beamtimes scheduled: 01.01.2024 – 31.07.2024 Alvra is an ideal location for jetting-based sample delivery techniques, such as the HVEs and GVDNs, whereas Bernina offers a highly adaptable sample position environment for user defined sample-delivery platforms. Both Alvra and Bernina offer femtosecond pump-probe measurements. The Cristallina station is the home of fixed-target delivery methods at SwissFEL and can offer nanosecond SFX pump-probe measurements. Please use the contact information below if you have any questions. Cristallina also warmly welcomes proposals from users looking for short beamtimes (<24 hr) for straight SFX measurements, perhaps for membrane protein and/or radiation-damage free structures. ================================================================= SwissFEL ARAMIS Alvra: https://www.psi.ch/alvra/ SwissFEL ARAMIS Bernina: https://www.psi.ch/bernina/ SwissFEL ARAMIS Cristallina-MX: https://www.psi.ch/en/swissfel/cristallina SwissFEL ARAMIS Alvra: Dr. Camila Bacellar, camila.bacel...@psi.ch<mailto:camila.bacel...@psi.ch> SwissFEL ARAMIS Bernina: Dr. Henrik Lemke, henrik.le...@psi.ch<mailto:henrik.le...@psi.ch> SwissFEL ARAMIS Cristallina-MX: Dr. John Beale, john.be...@psi.ch<mailto:john.be...@psi.ch> ================================================================= A pipeline for pre-characterising samples prior to applying for Alvra beamtime, in collaboration with the beamline staff, is available and strongly encouraged. Please contact Emma Beale (emma.be...@psi.ch<mailto:emma.be...@psi.ch>) for details. Our colleagues on our soft X-ray beamline, ATHOS, are also warmly accepting proposals but these may be less applicable to common structural biology questions. ================================================================= SwissFEL ATHOS Maloja: https://www.psi.ch/en/swissfel/maloja SwissFEL ATHOS Furka: https://www.psi.ch/de/swissfel/furka SwissFEL ATHOS Maloja: Dr. Kirsten Schnorr, kirsten.schn...@psi.ch<mailto:kirsten.schn...@psi.ch> SwissFEL ATHOS Furka: Dr. Elia Razzoli, elia.razz...@psi.ch<mailto:elia.razz...@psi.ch> ================================================================= Warmest regards, John Beale _____________________ Paul Scherrer Institut John Beale (he/him) SFX Beamline Scientist WSLA/224 Forschungsstrasse 111 5232 Villigen PSI Schweiz Telefon: +41 56 310 4715 Locofon: +41 79 281 87 14 Home Office: Monday morning Office hours: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday Bürozeiten: Dienstag, Mittwoch, Donnerstag, Freitag ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the CCP4BB list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/WA-JISC.exe?SUBED1=CCP4BB&A=1 This message was issued to members of www.jiscmail.ac.uk/CCP4BB, a mailing list hosted by www.jiscmail.ac.uk, terms & conditions are available at https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/policyandsecurity/
