Are you coming to IUCr 2023? Are you interested in room temperature serial micro-crystallography with XFELs and synchrotrons?
Then this is for you! We are hosting a satellite workshop on August 21st on “Recent breakthroughs & developments in sample delivery methods for X-ray serial crystallography” Where: La Trobe University, Bundoora Campus. Menzies Theatre. When: August 21st, 9 AM – 6 PM. Morning: hot topics in serial X-ray crystallography (see speaker list below). Afternoon: hands-on session on sample delivery methods for serial crystallography. Cost: FREE & lunch is provided – but you need to register ASAP! Speakers: Aina Cohen, Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource Junko Yano, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory James Nathan Hohman, University of Connecticut Alessandra Henkel, Center for free-electron laser science, DESY Eleanor Campbell, Australian Synchrotron Nadia Zatsepin, La Trobe University Have plans in the afternoon but still want to come see the talks? Register for just the morning session and come have lunch with the speakers.

Both chemical and macromolecular crystallography has benefitted significantly. However, the preparation, delivery, and analysis of diffraction data from millions of tiny crystals present a range of challenges. One of the most significant technical hurdles is how to rapidly and continuously deliver fresh crystals to the X-ray beam. In this workshop we will hear from pioneers of serial crystallography, showcasing their latest research in macromolecular and chemical serial crystallography. Anyone interested is welcome to attend and exchange ideas during the morning session<https://sites.google.com/view/serialmxworkshop2023/schedule?authuser=0>, followed by lunch (provided), which includes a poster session. The afternoon session will be a ‘hands on’ sample delivery workshop, where participants will get to see firsthand some of the latest developments in microcrystal sample handling and delivery. This will include demonstrations of sample preparation techniques and setting up different sample delivery systems. The afternoon session is limited to 40 participants, so book early. Hands-on sessions include: § Microcrystal sample preparation § Liquid and high viscosity injector systems including Lipidico § Fixed targets and tape drive systems § XFEL data analysis at the European XFEL -- Nadia Zatsepin ARC Future Fellow Department of Mathematical and Physical Sciences School of Computing, Engineering and Mathematical Sciences La Trobe University n.zatse...@latrobe.edu.au<mailto:n.zatse...@latrobe.edu.au> sites.google.com/view/zatsepinlab<https://sites.google.com/view/zatsepinlab> [signature_103588240] La Trobe University | TEQSA PRV12132 - Australian University | CRICOS Provider 00115M ######################################################################## 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/
