<p class="MsoNormal">Please post the following announcement for advanced Cryo-EM schooling opportunities in a new initiative to reduce the personnel shortage in the field of SPA cryo-EM and hopefully fill some of the many vacancies posted on the 3DEM server:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">“<span style="color:#1F497D">An academic team at NECEN/Leiden University (Koster Lab) and at CNB-CSIC (Carazo Lab), together with industrial partner Thermo Fischer (formerly FEI) started an initiative to organize an full in-depth cryo-EM
school in order to train participants to reach the level of independent proficiency of cryo-EM SPA worflows. This 9 week school will be piloted early January 2017 and will involve significant hands-on training to truly educate fully independent researchers
that will be proficient in executing the full SPA workflow from sample prep via screening and data collection to high resolution reconstruction. For more information, we refer you to our website:
