[SA_Scat] EMBO Workshop " Tools for Structural Biology of Membrane Proteins at EMBL Hamburg, 7-9th October 2019

[Margret Fischer]

Dear all,

It is a pleasure to announce the upcoming EMBO workshop on “Tools for 
Structural Biology of Membrane Proteins” to be held from Oct 7-9, 2019 
at the Centre for Structural Systems Biology (CSSB) on DESY campus in 
Hamburg, Germany.

We (Franz Hagn, Ayyalusamy Ramamoorthy and myself) have put together a 
versatile and interesting program covering a broad range of topics 
ranging from advanced membrane mimetics to biochemical approaches that 
facilitate structure determination of membrane proteins by EM, 
SAXS/SANS, X-ray and NMR.

Session topics are:

·Membrane mimetics for biochemistry and biophysics

·Structure, dynamics and folding of MPs in discs

·MP structure and biophysics

·Novel membrane tools for structural biology

·Scattering methods on MPs

·Drug design and function

·Production and reconstitution of MPs

·Structure and of function of MPs

Registration is already open. A large number of abstracts from 
submissions received before July 15 will be selected for oral 
presentations. The registration fee for PhD students and postdocs is 200 
Euros for conference participation including admission, conference 
materials, meals, coffee breaks and the conference dinner. The final 
deadline for registration is August 26. The number of participants is 
limited to 140 and acceptance is granted on a first come first serve basis.
