Dear Colleague and friends,
We are pleased to announce the 8th International Doctoral School on Biological Crystallization (ISBC2023), to be held in Granada (Spain) during May 21th to 26th, 2023 (http://www.isbcgranada.org/).
The School will provide five days of lectures, posters and practical demonstrations focused on the fundamentals of crystallization. The aim of the School is to introduce all participants into the fundamental knowledge about the behaviour of crystallizing solutions and their applications to the field of biological crystallization, including large crystals for neutron diffraction, tiny crystals for XFEL, and cryoEM sample preparation/characterization.
Grants are available!!!!
Looking forward to seeing you in Granada.
Best regards,
ISBC 2023 Organizing Committee
