BPS CryoEM Subgroup Webinar Better, Faster, Cheaper, Smarter: Advances in Cryo-EM/ET: Bridget Carragher
3/20/2024 Columbia University New York, United States
Better, Faster, Cheaper, Smarter: Advances in Cryo-EM/ET
This talk will provide a personal perspective on some of the tools and technologies that contributed to the remarkable growth of cryo electron microscopy over the past decade, and an outlook on some of challenges that remain, especially for in situ cryoEM.
Bridget Carragher received her Ph.D. in Biophysics from the University of Chicago in 1987. She has worked in a variety of positions, both in industry and academia and founded the company NanoImaging Services in 2007. Since January 1 2023, she has been the Technical Director of the Chan Zuckerberg Imaging Institute.

Workshop in the MIDST of Mapping the Protein Landscape with Metadynamics
3/20/2024 Sabanci University Altunizade Campus Istanbul, Turkey
This one-day workshop is to be delivered by Canan Atilgan from Sabanci University. The morning session will be devoted to the theory of a general overview of advanced techiques for the conformational search of proteins. The issue of collective variables will also be addressed in some detail. We will then focus on the theory behind the metadynamics (MetaD) technique. In the afternoon, we will hold a hands-on session on setting up and running a MetaD simulation. We will finally focus on the analysis of the outputs and discuss bestpractices.
Events starts at 9:00 AM (GMT+3) and ends at 4:00 PM (GMT+3).
