Leginon Training Workshop  
May 24-27,  2010
The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA

NRAMM will host a 4 day training workshop on the use of the Leginon 
System for automated data collection for TEM.  The purpose of the 
workshop is to introduce the system to those groups who want to use 
Leginon on their own instruments at their home institutions.  The 
workshop will provide an overview of the design and use of the system, 
provide instruction on routine operations, and give an introduction to 
developing new applications.  The workshop will be restricted to a total 
of 8 participants.   There will be an optional day on Friday, May 28 for 
informal extended training and interaction with the staff.

Each participant is expected to be well trained in the use of a TEM. 
This workshop will have a particular emphasis on using Leginon for 
routine data collection. Participants will be expected to attempt to 
install and use Leginon on their own systems prior to the course. 
Software and documentation is available at http://leginon.org. 

There is no cost for attending the workshop and lunch will be provided 
each day. Participants will be expected to cover their own travel and 
lodging expenses. Course organizers will help to organize and coordinate 
lodging arrangements.

To apply to attend the workshop, please send a brief email to Clint 
Potter (cpotter at scripps.edu) stating that you would like to attend.
