[3dem] NOTICE: PNCC offering new proposal type and other news

[Vega, Lauren B]

Hello CryoEM Researchers,

PNCC has many changes that are occurring starting in January 2022.

Firstly, PNCC is offering a new proposal type called 'Screening Access' for users with limited or no cryoEM sample preparation access. For more information, go here<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__pncc.labworks.org_access&d=DwIFAg&c=-35OiAkTchMrZOngvJPOeA&r=L7-zyQ-04fFCMRqzLIOnx7H0exGZHwIQe_wMPuY600I&m=qGrZOs3YHCZhZlwFZ78oqR0ID2rFb-zRoSJSe7KpPuR3jkd76vOyW377F_lfmghA&s=DLtBGBs1fsGxfBQxsAhT2jVSYtNtV4I5snA-2eE4Yoc&e= >. The first application deadline for this new proposal type is February 1st at 11:59pm (Pacific).

Secondly, in agreement with the CryoEM National Centers we have revised our General Access application to offer common criteria to users for the research proposals. PNCC has changed this for the February 1st submission deadline.

Thirdly, we have revised our PNCC Scheduling Policies to correspond with the application changes that we have made. Please review our scheduling policies here<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__pncc.labworks.org_access_scheduling-2Dpolicies&d=DwIFAg&c=-35OiAkTchMrZOngvJPOeA&r=L7-zyQ-04fFCMRqzLIOnx7H0exGZHwIQe_wMPuY600I&m=qGrZOs3YHCZhZlwFZ78oqR0ID2rFb-zRoSJSe7KpPuR3jkd76vOyW377F_lfmghA&s=z3OophWG6T0kXdHYam0bgYEBbc_7_IfKqVTrrnkdNbA&e= >. Of note, we have rolled out a sample submission form for the new 'Screening Access' proposals and have edited our policy for shipping grids back to users. We have also provided more information for screening services offered. The new policies will be enforced starting March 1st, 2022.

Finally, we are planning to start offering on-site workshops again in addition to our remote workshops. Please check here<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__pncc.labworks.org_training_workshops&d=DwIFAg&c=-35OiAkTchMrZOngvJPOeA&r=L7-zyQ-04fFCMRqzLIOnx7H0exGZHwIQe_wMPuY600I&m=qGrZOs3YHCZhZlwFZ78oqR0ID2rFb-zRoSJSe7KpPuR3jkd76vOyW377F_lfmghA&s=7TBSyFI_WlNUEgsRIglIo1KlDu9JNpDL7IeWwC6z038&e= > to see when we are offering all workshops.

Here is to 2022!
