Dear All,

The deadline for submitting an abstract to the American Crystallographic Association Meeting (https://www.aca2019mtg.com/) that will take place July 20-24 2019 in Cincinnati/Northern KY has been extended to April 12 (Friday this week).

Cryo-EM methods are featured at many sessions in the ACA meeting program, including "Radiation Damage in X-ray Crystallography and Cryo-EM" (session 4.1.2), which Gerd Rosenbaum and I are organizing. If you are researching any aspect of radiation damage, please consider submitting an abstract to this session at: https://acaonline.secure-platform.com/a/

I've copied and pasted below a description of what we are looking for, but this isn't a comprehensive list, so don't be shy about sending in your abstract.

Best regards,

Dominika Borek

Are you wondering why or how your samples keeping dying when you are just innocently trying to solve a structure so that you can complete your Ph.D. or finally publish that important paper? If so, the session “Radiation Damage in X-ray Crystallography and Cryo-EM” is for you!

What is radiation dose? What are dose-rate effects and why should you care about them? How should you collect data to minimize radiation damage in X-ray crystallography and cryo-EM? How does radiation damage manifest in a structure? Can radiation damage be useful? These and other questions will be answered during this session.

If you plan to participate and have a questions that you wish to be answered during this session, do not hesitate to email these questions to the chairs: Dominika Borek ([email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>) and Gerd Rosenbaum ([email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>).
