Upcoming Trainings
Conference on Protein Conformational Dynamics:
October 11th, 2018
Time-resolved crystallography using XFEL & synchrotron radiation
An open international workshop highlighting the scientific breakthroughs of the consortium, which places the work in a broader scientific context. Presentation slots will be reserved for selected ESRs.
Lead Institution University of Gothenburg
Past Trainings
September 22 2017
Proposal writing workshop
Proposal writing is clearly an important skill in academia, but it is equally important for entrepreneurs needing to attract funding for start-up companies. The ESRs will be given training to write a beamtime proposals and the best proposal will be awarded beamtime at FemtoMAX.
Lead Institution Lunds Universitet
December 05-06 2016
Serial Crystallography at FELs and Synchrotrons
Outlines the new experimental and theoretical challenges associated with diffract-and-destroy approaches to structural biology. Course includes hands-on sessions for data processing of thousands of images collected from nano-crystals at X-ray free electron laser and synchrotrons.
Lead Institution Universität Hamburg
