Dear all, how many times do you have to refer back to information in the most obscure places to prepare a PDB submission? With the right metadata associated with your dataset, the process could be much simpler. This is one of the points that will be addressed during a virtual meeting on MX raw image data formats, metadata and validation this Saturday, 22 Aug 2020, from 9 am until 3 pm, Prague Time (GMT+2, you do the math for your time zone).
Organized and put together by Herbert Bernstein for the most part, the meeting will put the recently published Gold standard ( https://doi.org/10.1107/S2052252520008672) before a discerning audience of beamline scientists and crystallographers and ask how - we can assure that all relevant experimental information is save with the diffraction data, - crystallographic data should be recorded to be findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable, - correctly recorded metadata makes automatic processing simpler, - PDB submission can be made more automatic with the right metadata, - chemical crystallography can benefit from the work put into the Gold standard. Please register for the meeting by replying to this email (include your name and affiliation). It's free and fun. More information can be found at http://www.medsbio.org/meetings/HDRMX_22Aug20.html. In my humble opinion, everyone with responsibility for a crystallographic beamline anywhere in the world should be interested in this topic, though I understand that the timing of the meeting will only let the most dedicated scientists from the US attend. I hope to see many of you on Saturday.
