Autumn Meeting 2004 of the BCA Physical Crystallography Group and the IoP Structural Condensed Matter Physics Group Neutron Scattering from Biological Systems Cosener's House, Abingdon, OXON 13-14 December 2004 Hosted at Cosener's House, Abingdon, OXON and supported by the PCG and Rutherford Appleton Laboratory. Organising Committee: John R. Helliwell (Dept. of Chemistry, University of Manchester), Jeff Penford (ISIS Facility, CCLRC), John S.O. Evans (Dept. of Chemistry, University of Durham) and P.A. Thomas (dept. of Physics, University of Warwick) Local Organiser Paolo G. Radaelli In this meeting we aim to give a broad overview of the contribution of neutrons to biology, with particular emphasis on neutron protein crystallography, neutron fibre diffraction, small-angle scattering and reflectometry from systems such as enzymes, amyloids, membranes, proteins absorbed on surfaces, drug delivery vehicles, biosensors and many more. These topics will be introduced by a series of invited and contributing speakers and by a poster session, but there will also be ample time for an open discussion about the present and future of neutron techniques and facilities. In particular, we will explore the opportunities for neutron scattering experiments in biology at existing and future neutron sources, such as the ISIS Second Target Station. We expect a stimulating discussion on these topics to continue over our traditional Christmas Dinner. The level of the presentations will be suitable for beginners and expert alike. The meeting will start at 1:30 PM on December 13, 2004 and end at 12:30 PM on December 14, 2004. We encourage graduate students to attend, and to bring posters for display at the meeting. Confirmed speakers: Mathew Blackley (EMBL - Grenoble) Giovanna Fragneto (Institut Laue-Langevin), Hermann Heumann (Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry), Jayne Lawrence (King's College London) Bob Thomas (University of Oxford), Peter Timmins (Institut Laue-Langevin), Tim Wess (University of Cardiff) A registration form is available as an HTML document by clicking the link below.
