S2C2 Workshop - CryoEM CCP-EM Modelling

Training
Registration Date: 09-Oct-2020 to 03-Nov-2020
Date: 10-Nov-2020 to 14-Nov-2020

Stanford-SLAC Cryo-EM Center (S2C2) will offer a modeling workshop held via Zoom Webinar between November 10-13, 2020 from 8:00 AM - 2:00 PM (PDT) daily. This workshop will give participants an introduction to atomic model building into cryo-EM maps using the tools available in the CCP-EM software suite.

Our guest trainers for this event are:

  • Dr. Colin Palmer, CCP-EM, STFC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory;
  • Dr. Tom Burnley, CCP-EM, STFC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory;
  • Dr. Kevin Cowtan, Dept. of Chemistry, University of York;
  • Dr. Paul Emsley, MRC-LMB, Cambridge;
  • Asst. Prof. Arjen Jakobi, Dept. of Bionanoscience, TU Delft;
  • Dr. Agnel Praveen Joseph, CCP-EM; Dr. Robert Nicholls, MRC-LMB, Cambridge;
  • Prof. Maya Topf, CCP-EM, ISMB Birkbeck, University of London, and
  • Dr. Martin Winn, CCP-EM.

Topics to be covered:

  • Automated de novo model building using Buccaneer and Nautilus
  • Flexible fitting with Flex-EM
  • Model refinement using REFMAC5
  • Local map sharpening with LocScale
  • Interactive model building in Coot
  • Atomic model validation

Those attendees wishing to participate in the practical will be receiving software and downloading instructions from our group to test the software/computer capabilities for any technical issues one week ahead of the actual meeting dates.
