Exciting Protein X-ray Crystallography Webinar with Dr. Elspeth F. Garman

The deleterious effect of radiation damage during diffraction data collection at both cryo and room temperatures is a limiting factor in macromolecular crystallography. Research over the last 15 years has increased our understanding of the physical and chemical processes involved in radiation damage and its progression and have given insight into ways of reducing its effects on both the quantity and quality of data that can be obtained. This talk will cover some factors that might be considered when trying to optimize data collection strategies with the effects of radiation damage rates in mind. Emphasis will be placed on practical aspects which can be expedited by the experimenter 'on the ground'. Additionally, dose distributions in crystals which result from various data collection protocols will be presented, as calculated by our new software, RADDOSE-3D (www.raddo.se).

Join us for this educational interactive 45-minute webinar with a live Q&A session to follow.

We look forward to seeing you there!
