1st cryoNET course on advanced single particle cryo-EM analysis
June 5 @ 08:00 – June 9 @ 17:00 CEST
CryoNet is a Nordic network in cryogenic electron microscopy that aims to promote collaboration and knowledge sharing across national borders. A main goal is to help establish state-of-the-art cryogenic electron microscopy as a strong pillar of Nordic life science research.
The core of the network is constituted by the cryo-EM facilities at University of Copenhagen, Aarhus University, Stockholm University and Umeå University.
We are happy to announce the 1st cryoNET course on advanced single particle cryo-EM analysis that will take place at Aarhus University on 5-9 June 2023. Aim of the course is to provide training in cryo-EM image processing including the latest developments of the field.
Participants will receive hands-on training in state-of-the-art techniques for single particle cryo-EM image processing, model building and validation from a range of international specialist guest lecturers. The course also includes theoretical talks and discussions on the use of cryo-EM to address difficult biological questions, which can help the participants address their own research problems.
Participation in the entire course is mandatory and an attendance certificate will be given at the end of the course.
