[3dem] The Seventh Brazil School for Single Particle Cryo-EM (11-23 August 2016)

[Marin van Heel]

Dear All,

After six successful schools in this bi-annual series, we are happy to 
announce:

*The Seventh Brazil School for Single Particle Cryo-EM (11 - 23 August 
2016)*

This single-particle data processing school is an intensive hands-on 
course/workshop, in which theory and practice are intertwined.  The 
spectrum of topics covered suits attendees who are new to the field as 
well as those for whom the technique is already of growing importance in 
their research and wish to acquire an in-depth understanding of the 
methodology. Topics range from data collection and three-dimensional 
reconstruction techniques to the final interpretation of the cryo-EM 
maps by fitting of X-ray structures or fitting de-novo atomic 
co-ordinates. Especially the last days of the meeting will be devoted to 
advanced topics such as: movie-processing, 3D random-startup, dealing 
with heterogeneous data sets ("4D" cryo-EM), high-resolution refinements 
(~3A) and validation of cryo-EM results.

The attendees are expected to bring along a modern notebook computer 
onto which all necessary software will be installed. Most processing 
will take place in the context of the IMAGIC-4D software system but 
other software packages such as FREALIGN, COOT and CHIMERA will also be 
used. Cryo-EM data sets will be distributed for processing during the 
course. The participants may bring their own data sets for processing 
and discussion.

Kind regards,
