[3dem] CCP-EM Icknield Workshop 13-17th October 2025 - Registration Open!

[Lauren Giles - STFC UKRI]

Dear all,

We are happy to announce the 2025 CCP-EM/Diamond Icknield Workshop to be held from the 13-17th October 2025.  This 5-day course is largely aimed at structural biologists with EM maps suitable for modelling building and refinement.  This course will host some of the leading software developers and provide ample contact time to allow delegates to discuss their data in detail alongside traditional lectures and tutorials.  This is a comprehensive course for EM model building covering advanced use of LocScale, ModelAngelo, Buccaneer, findMySequence-checkMySequence, EM_placement, Coot/Moorhen, TEMPy-REFF, ISOLDE, Refmac-Servalcat, Privateer, new validation tools and AlphaFold-DB & EMDB/PDBe updates. It will cover all aspects of modelling building including: map optimisation, automated model building, model fitting, medium resolution refinement, high resolution refinement, interactive refinement, validation and deposition.

The course will be held at the RAL / Diamond campus, Harwell, UK, site of the eBIC national facility.  Registration fee is £386.00 and accommodation at The Bear Hotel, Wantage, can be booked separately as part of the registration process at £86.50 per night. Delegates are asked to meet their own travel costs.

The course is limited to 20 in-person delegates which will be selected from all applicants.  A maximum of 40 applicants can register interest here:

CCP-EM can offer a limited number of bursaries to cover £200.00 of registration fees. If you would like to apply for a bursary, please do so on the 'application questions' page of the registration form, detailing your motivation for attending the workshop and why a bursary would help.
Application for the workshop will close either when all registration places are taken or by Friday 08 August 2025 and the 20 successful applicants will be informed the following week.

Please allow 10-15 mins to fill in the registration details.
