Workshop on Small-Angle X-ray Scattering
and Diffraction Studies in Structural Biology
April 9-12, 2009
Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource
SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
Menlo Park, California

The SSRL Structural Molecular Biology Group hosts this comprehensive workshop on the use of primarily non-crystalline small-angle x-ray diffraction techniques in structural biology research. The main focus of the workshop is solution x-ray scattering studies on biological macromolecules. The first half of the workshop will have lectures on theoretical and experimental aspects of solution scattering as well as recent applications in biology. Computational approaches to data interpretation and structural modeling will also be covered. The workshop will also include related topics such as lipid and fiber diffraction studies. The second half of the workshop is devoted to experimental tutorials on solution x-ray scattering at Beam Line 4-2 and software demonstration/tutorial sessions. Participants are encouraged to bring their own samples for the experimental tutorials.

The SSRL Structural Molecular Biology Program is funded by the National Institutes of Health, National Center for Research Resources, Biomedical Technology Program, and the Department of Energy, Office of Biological and Environmental Research.
