| |
|
| |
|
| ''February 18-20th, 2009 at BESSY-II, Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin für Materialien und Energie''
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| '''Scope:'''
| |
|
| |
| The third Winter School on Soft X-rays in Macromolecular Crystallography (after Seefeld in 2006 and Bressanone in 2003) will bring together experts from different fields, which are key-players in the developments and further utilization of Soft X-ray applications in structural biology with the users of this modern methodology.
| |
| The three days school will cover the following topics:
| |
|
| |
| * The design of soft X-ray sources,
| |
| * The design of beamlines optimized for soft X-ray research,
| |
| * New detectors,
| |
| * Optimal data collection procedures for soft X-ray diffraction
| |
| * New derivatization methods of biological macromolecules
| |
| * Long wavelength approaches to increase the anomalous scattering of sulfur and other natively occurring anomalous scatterers
| |
| * Treatment of soft X-ray data, (from processing towards the phasing and phase improvements) * Radiation damage and its utilization to gain structural information
| |
|
| |
| Scientific contributions from participants with examples of Soft X-ray related structural studies will be included in the program as well.
