Dear all,
Just before Christmas we were able to collect first protein crystal data at the
long-wavelength MX beamline at Diamond (as you might have seen in my
presentation at the CCP4 Study Weekend). The combination of the in-vacuum
sample environment and the single-photon counting detector (in-vacuum P12M)
proves to work and produces data with impressive signal-to-noise ratios. We are
now in the process to optimise the beamline towards user operation. If you want
to join our team to take part exploring unknown territory using this unique
instrument, please get into touch or follow the links below. We intend to
shortlist for a first round of interviews in about two weeks (9th of Feb).
Best regards,
Armin

Subject: [ccp4bb] Postdoc position for long-wavelength MX at Diamond Light
Source
Postdoctoral Research Associate - Beamline I23
Beamline I23 at Diamond Light Source will be a unique facility for in-vacuum
long-wavelength macromolecular crystallography (MX). After more than five years
in design, construction and commissioning, we have recently collected first
diffraction data and are expecting first user experiments before the end of
this year.
We are looking for a highly motivated Post Doc to take part in the very first
experiments at long wavelengths, helping to establish and test new data
collection strategies for anomalous data collections from native proteins or
around the M edges for large macromolecular complexes.
For more details, please see:

and

If you have any questions concerning the position, please do not hesitate to
get into touch.
Best regards,
Armin
