Dear colleagues, We are excited to announce the 2026 Applied Crystallization Workshop<https://www.buffalo.edu/content/dam/www/hwi/2026_NCC_flyer_final.pdf> at the National Crystallization Center (NCC) at University at Buffalo Hauptman Woodward Research Institute in Buffalo, NY.
In 2026, the workshop will consist of two separate 2-day on-site workshops hosted at the NCC. The workshop will focus on practical aspects of optimizing macromolecular crystals for structure solution. Both workshops will include hands-on tutorials on a variety of topics. Participants will be encouraged to set up experiments to optimize crystals of their own proteins. Participants will learn best practices for harvesting and shipping their crystals for data collection at synchrotrons. Dates for the two NCC workshops: * April 23rd & 24th application deadline 2/23 * June 2nd & 3rd application deadline 4/27 APPLY HERE<https://forms.gle/52mhQBdBtQsV4TFu8> to attend one of the workshops! New for the NCC Applied Crystallization Workshop in 2026: we are partnering with NIH-supported synchrotron facilities hosting data collection workshops. Our goal is to help participants who are interested in sending their crystals grown during the NCC workshop to a synchrotron to apply to attend one of the data collection workshops that are available. * RapiData<https://www-ssrl.slac.stanford.edu/rapidata/rapidata-2026/index.html> at SSRL May 4-9 application deadline 2/14 * CCP4/APS School in Macromolecular Crystallography: From data collection to structure refinement and beyond<https://www.ccp4.ac.uk/schools/APS-school/index.php> at APS July 7-14 application deadline 5/15 * CBMS Workbench at NSLS-II June 8-12 – more details available soon We welcome your applications!
