Abstract
We are running a serial femtosecond crystallography data analysis workshop at ACA 2015 in Philadelphia, PA, focused on "Serial Crystallography Data Analysis with Cheetah and CrystFEL: Concepts and Tutorials".
www.amercrystalassn.org/2015-wk.02
See Series below to view videos and presentations from this workshop
We will begin at 9 am and conclude at 5 pm.
Target audience:
This workshop is intended for graduate students, postdocs and young scientists interested in the details of serial femtosecond crystallography data analysis. It is not intended as an introduction to crystallography. Participants will be assumed to have at least a
basic knowledge of conventional crystallographic data analysis, as we will focus on the specific features of SFX analysis. Participants are strongly encouraged to obtain familiarity with Unix commands prior to attending.
Practice data (from
http://cxidb.org ) will be available, and participants are welcome to bring their own SFX data.
This conference session, co-chaired by 2 of the workshop organizers, will provide an overview of XFEL SFX and its rapid development, recent implementations of serial crystallography at synchrotrons, dealing with practical and computations issues with data from multiple crystals, as well as some exciting recent biological results obtained with SFX. The workshop will provide hands-on training for the analysis of serial crystallographic data from "raw" data to a reflection list that can be used in further crystallographic analysis.
