<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"> <br>
We are pleased to announce our 2.5-day practical workshop on
sample preparation for cryo-EM single particle <br>
data collection jointly organised by the ESRF, IBS, EMBL
Grenoble and ILL. This is the fifth of a series of practical<br>
hands-on workshops started in 2018. This workshop is aimed at
PhDs, PostDocs and young scientists new to the <br>
field of single particle cryo-EM and will be held at the
European Photon Neutron campus, Grenoble, France from <b><br>
May 23<sup>rd</sup> to 25</b></span><b><sup><span lang="EN-US">th </span></sup></b><b><span lang="EN-US">2023</span></b><span lang="EN-US">.
During the course, participants will learn theoretical and
practical aspects of sample <br>
preparation for single particle cryo-EM including prior
quality control by negative staining. The participants will<br>
also learn on quality assessment of the grids prepared by
them.<br>
<br>
There is <b>no registration fee</b> and meals and
accommodation during the workshop will be provided free of
charge. <br>
However, participants should arrange and pay for their own
travel to/from Grenoble. A maximum of 12 participants <br>
will be selected and we will accept a limited number of
participants’ samples to be tested during the workshop. In<br>
case that you plan to bring your own sample, please clearly
mention this in your cover letter, also indicating the<br>
importance of the project.</span><span lang="EN-US"></span></p>
