Dear all,

this is the second announcement of the International School “Bridging the Gap between Cryo-EM and Crystallography” that will be held in Pavia, 3-7 September 2017. http://www.cristallografia.org/aicschool2017

 

This school will offer the opportunity to young researchers in biochemistry or structural biology at the PhD/postdoctoral level to approach the fundamental questions arising from the cryo-EM experiment setup. Central topics will include evaluation sample suitability for analysis and its preparation, choice of appropriate instrumentation for single particle, tomography or electron diffraction approaches, data processing and interpretation of results. A showcase of recent results will contour the tutorial sessions.

 

The school program is almost finalized and, given the enthusiastic reply from speakers, tutors and the applicants who already registered until now, we are confident this event will be an excellent opportunity for many scientists who want to approach and learn the basics of cryo-electron microscopy. We have received official sponsorship from the International Union for Crystallography (IUCr) which allows us to offer travel bursaries and awards to outstanding participants based on their CV and motivation letters. DEADLINE FOR BURSARY APPLICATIONS: May 15th, 2017.

 

For information, program and registration details please visit http://www.cristallografia.org/aicschool2017. More specific enquiries can be discussed via e-mail to my address ([log in to unmask]) or to [log in to unmask]

 

We look forward to hosting you in Pavia and discuss about Cryo-EM in September.

On behalf of all school organizers,

Very best wishes,

F.
