Dear All:
The ARC Centre of Excellence for Advanced Molecular Imaging and EMBL Australia announce a workshop on cryo-EM and single-particle analysis to be held at Monash University, Melbourne, Australia, 1-3 February 2017, preceding the LorneProteins meeting <http://www.lorneproteins.org/>. The workshop will include hands-on practicals in addition to problem-solving-oriented talks from leading software developers in the field, including *Steven Ludtke*, lead developer of the popular, all-purpose *EMAN2 <http://blake.bcm.edu/emanwiki/EMAN2> *suite of programs *Hans Elmlund, *lead developer of the *SIMPLE/PRIME <http://simplecryoem.com/>* suite of programs for *ab intio *3D reconstruction *Jose Miguel de la Rosa Trevin *and* Roberto Marabini*, developers of the integrative software tool *Scipion <http://scipion.cnb.csic.es/m/home/>* The workshop will cover all computational aspects of single-particle analysis, including 2D analysis, 3D starting model generation, heterogeneity analysis, and high-resolution refinement. You will be introduced to and get the opportunity to try out the latest developments in the field. We will accept 40 students. To apply go to http://simplecryoem.com/workshop.html The registration fee is 300 AUD and once your registration is confirmed you will be sent an invoice.
