Icknield Workshop 2024

The teams at CCP-EM and Diamond are pleased to announce the 2024 Icknield Workshop. This course is largely aimed at structural biologists (PhDs, Post-docs, research staff or PI) with EM maps suitable for modelling building and refinement. This course will cover all aspects of modelling building including: map optimisation, automated model building, model fitting, medium resolution refinement, high resolution refinement, interactive refinement, validation and deposition.

Overview

We are happy to announce the 2024 CCP-EM/Diamond Icknield Workshop to be held from the 4-8th November 2024.  This 5-day course is largely aimed at structural biologists with EM maps suitable for modelling building and refinement.  This course will host some of the leading software developers and provide ample contact time to allow delegates to discuss their data in detail alongside traditional lectures and tutorials.  This is a comprehensive course for EM model building covering advanced use of LocScale, ModelAngelo, Buccaneer, findMySequence-checkMySequence, EM_placement, Coot/Moorhen, TEMPy-REFF, ISOLDE, Refmac-Servalcat, Privateer, new validation tools and AlphaFold-DB & EMDB/PDBe updates. It will cover all aspects of modelling building including: map optimisation, automated model building, model fitting, medium resolution refinement, high resolution refinement, interactive refinement, validation and deposition.

The course will be held at the RAL / Diamond campus, Harwell, UK, site of the eBIC national facility.  Registration fee is £238.00 and accommodation can be booked separately at the Bear Hotel, Wantage at £78.00 per night as part of the registration process. Delegates are asked to meet their own travel costs.

The course is limited to 22 in-person delegates which will be selected from all applicants.  A maximum of 40 applicants can register interest.

Registration of interest will close either when all places are taken or by Friday 12th July 2024 and the successful applicants will be informed the following week. Please allow 10-15 mins to fill in the registration details.
