A two-day workshop focused on both the basics and the current development in macromolecular single crystal structure refinement techniques will be held in Prague on April 3-4 2009. The workshop is organized within the TeachSG project of the EC (tightly connected with the project Spine2-Complexes) to support dissemination of knowledge in the field of structural biology. Several highly qualified speakers and tutors confirmed their contributions to the workshop (see the attached preliminary program). There will be a limited number of places so hurry up if you want to be here in April. The workshop is aimed at young researchers, students, PhD students, young post-docs (exceptions can be made if reasonably justified). We expect a wide spectrum of "students" from beginners in refinement to experienced users seeking proficiency in the field. To apply for participation, please, send an e-mail to myself (Jan Dohnalek, cc: [log in to unmask]) containing a motivation letter (within the e-mail message is OK), a letter of support from your supervisor or head of group, and a short professional CV (one page). It should be clear from your documents why participation in such workshop is necessary for your career. The deadline for applications is: Tuesday 24th February 2009. The selected participants will be notified by e-mail within several days after the deadline date. The organizers provide and cover the costs of conference materials, refreshments during the course including lunches and a workshop dinner on the 3rd. Workshop participants are asked to make their own travel arrangements and accommodation bookings. We are ready to give you advice on travel if necessary. You can contact Jan Dohnalek or Jarmila Duskova (duskova at imc.cas.cz) for more details. Looking forward to see you in Prague, Jan Dohnalek IMC Prague -- ============================================== Mr. Jan Dohnalek, Ph.D Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic Laboratory of Structural Analysis of Molecules Heyrovskeho nam. 2 16206 Prague 6 Tel: +420 296809390 Fax: +420 296809410 http://protein.awardspace.com/ ==============================================
