Dear All, We wanted to bring your attention to our workshop at the upcoming ACA annual meeting on Sample Attributes for Multiple-techniques and Principal Requirements for Experiments in Pan-structural biology - SAMPREP (https://www.acameeting.com/workshop2-sam23)
This one-day workshop will be held Friday, July 7th, the first day of the ACA meeting in Baltimore, MD. It will focus on how to prepare the best possible samples for successful use of multiple structural biology techniques, particularly small angle X-ray scattering, cryo-EM and X-ray crystallography. The content is aimed at investigators new to the practical application of structural biology methods or for those with experience in one technique to gain the knowledge they need to pursue others (or inspire you to consider those you haven’t used before!). There will be a strong emphasis on practical application: knowing how to judge sample quality and suitability for different techniques and how to troubleshoot during sample preparation. We will discuss what you can expect to learn from the different methodologies and how to set expectations for a successful experiment across the spectrum of commonly used techniques that benefit from data collection at synchrotron sources and cryo-EM centers. The workshop is part of the ACA meeting (see link above) and registration closes June 30th. If you are already registered for the meeting, you can still register for a workshop until the June 30th deadline by contacting the ACA office. We hope to see some of you there!
