My (limited) experience of the Diffraction Methods GRC suggests that the most
valuable part of these meetings is when people get together outside the talks -
so independent of the session chairs (apart from the people that they invite)
and of any instructions given to speakers.
Just my two
Whether cross-pollination happens depends on the session chairs, and the
remit they're given, and the instructions given to the speakers: if
early on everybody sets the tone, to inform as much as advertise, then
it could be a rip-roaringly interesting meeting.
At least, I've never
Hi all,
I'm a big believer in cross-pollination between disciplines. I think there
could be room for a multidisciplinary methods meeting (MMM) provided the right
topics are chosen. If these are things that concern NMR-ists, X-ray-ans and
cryo-EM-ers equally you might get the right mix of
Hi, everybody, hi, Nukri and Pavel !
I fully agree with Pavel that, if the speakers are not exceptional, if they are
(as usually) concentrated on their specific and narrow problems,
cross-discipline meetings make us lost quite fast, they are annoying and
useless. Richard Feynmann had the same

Hi Pavel,
Your description of the current status is exactly correct. And that's
exactly what I am proposing to change or, more accurately, try to change.
By seeking out and bringing together people who do complementary and
collaborative work, so they can set an example for others.
This, of
Nukri,
IMO, the idea of cross-discipline meetings is great conceptually, at least
for reasons you pointed out, but utopical in practice. When we attend our
field-specific meetings we meet colleagues we know, we talk to
collaborators from the past or find new ones, we have things in common that
we
Hi James,
This meeting has indeed been one of the best ones by its format, content,
and atmosphere. Many thanks to all the organizers and attendees of the
past. Nevertheless, it is not surprising that it was cancelled, given the
trends in structural biology research. Straightforward evolutionary

Consider merging with the Annual ACA meeting. The ACA meeting can also benefit

Structural Biology, as well as all those who contributed to these great

myself. Not just because
