- The Edge, The University of Sheffield, 34 Endcliffe Crescent, Sheffield S10 3ED
A three-day conference from the Royal Society of Chemistry as part of the Faraday Discussion series
For over 100 years and 300 meetings, Faraday Discussions have led the conversation on the study of the sciences lying between chemistry, physics and biology. Many of these Discussions have become landmark meetings in their field with the unique format allowing for in-depth discussions and opportunities to establish new collaborations.
This Discussion is for established and early-career scientists, post-graduate students and industrial researchers interested in the expanding field of cryo-electron microscopy. Researchers in this area who based in cryo-EM facilities or research institutes, or in departments of biology, chemistry, structural biology, virology, cell biology, molecular biology or biophysics etc. are all welcome. Oral and poster presentation opportunities are available to all these groups, and individuals are invited to submit an oral or poster abstract and make their contribution alongside leaders in the field.
The Discussion will bring together expertise from the UK and the international cryo-electron microscopy community to discuss current developments and new challenges. The programme has recently expanded to include more aspects of validation and new developments in computational approaches.
