[3dem] ESRF workshop on sample preparation for cryo-EM, Nov 5-7, 2019

[Gregory Effantin]

Dear All,

We are pleased to announce a 2.5 day practical winter workshop on sample
preparation and negative staining for cryo-EM single particle data
collection jointly organised by the ESRF, IBS, ILL and the EMBL Grenoble.
This is the third of a series of practical hands-on workshops started in
2018. This workshop is aimed at PhDs, PostDocs and scientists new to the
field of single particle cryo-EM and will be held at the European
Synchrotron, EMBL Grenoble and the Institut de Biologie Structurale (IBS)
in Grenoble, France from *November 5th to 7th, 2019*. During the course,
participants will learn theoretical and practical aspects of sample
preparation for single particle cryo-EM including prior quality control by
negative staining.

There is *no registration fee* and meals and accommodation during the
workshop will be provided free of charge. However, participants are
expected to arrange and pay for their own travel to/from Grenoble. A
maximum of 12 participants will be selected and we will accept a number of
participants’ samples to be tested during the workshop. In the case that
you plan to bring your own sample, please clearly mention this in your
cover letter, also indicating the importance of the project.

Application for the workshop is open using the link
http://www.esrf.fr/events/conferences/ and the deadline is *September 29,
2019*. Successful candidates will be informed during the first week after
the deadline.

Best regards,

*Eaazhisai KANDIAH*
