The tutorial will take place during one week from 9 March to13 March 2026 and is open to PhD Students, as well as postdocs and staff of the PSB (Partnership on Structural Biology) on the EPN campus.
The aim of the tutorial is to introduce the theoretical background of crystallography and related techniques, to give a complete presentation of macromolecular crystallography techniques together with an introduction into its hands-on aspects.
The tutorial will take place during one week from 9 March to 13 March 2026. It will include 22 hours of classes (lectures and exercises) as well as two 2-hour sessions of practical training on graphical workstations and a 2 h practical in data collection on a synchrotron beamline. The language of the class is English. The tutorial is aimed at any PhD student working in the field of structural biology as well as PhD students in chemistry facing crystallographic techniques. Fundamental aspects of crystallography will be addressed as well as work with current software and the data collection on a synchrotron beamline.
The tutorial will take place in the CIBB seminar room and the CIBB graphics room on the EPN campus. Public: Students in biochemistry, biophysics, structural biology, chemistry; Postdocs and staff of the PSB
