Great to see new data coming out already from the Tundra :)
A 8 Å resolution map of filamentous cystathionine beta-synthase from a test collection on our Tundra when it was being installed. Though the resolution is limited because the microscope had not been fully set up it was nice to determine a structure again of one of my favourite enzymes. #CryoEM

Ten years of the CCP-EM Spring Symposium
This article reviews the growth over the last ten years of the CCP-EM Spring Symposium. The conference is now established as a popular meeting for practitioners of life-science cryoEM and highlights new methods and exemplar applications.

Great end to the meeting. Congratulations to all of the talk and poster prize winners. Looking forward to seeing you all again next year 🤩
Ending the meeting with a careers panel. What you you do with a PhD in structural biology?
Alexander Konstantinov from UKRI STFC telling us how we can optimise refinement of x-ray data
Next up Dr Megan Lambert from Diamond
Last talk of this session from Isabel Cormack from the University of Durham
Lots of great posters at this year’s meeting 👏🏻
Kicking off the next session is Jonathon Liston from @cpbm-heddlelab.bsky.social telling us about protein design
Second day of #ccp4north and something a bit different from @fraaamazzz.bsky.social with #cryoEM amyloid fibrils structures. Very cool! #cryo4NM
Lovely to have 5 “generations” of #Salgadolab PhD students together at #ccp4north! In chronological order: @adamcrawshaw.bsky.social, Paola Lanzoni-Mangutchi, @vic0210.bsky.social, Ellie Rockliff and @pav2601.bsky.social. #proudPI
Next up is Robbie Burton from Newcastle University
Next up Dr Francesca Mazzotta from Max Plank with some beautiful structures of peptide nanofibrils
Dr Christian Orr kicking off the second day of the CCP4 Northern Structural Biology Meeting, telling us what more we can get from our crystal data with anomalous scattering
Finishing off the first day of talks is William Hall from Durham University
Next, we have Thomas McCorvie from Newcastle
Next up is Dr Jennifer Miles from the University of Leeds
Starting the next session : Dr Abbey Trlfer from Diamond telling us about time resolved crystallography
Last talk from this session : Lucy Schofield from the University of York
The next talk is from Dr Éilis McClay from the University of Glasgow
Afternoon starts with former #Salgadolab student @adamcrawshaw.bsky.social getting the audience engaged on #microcrystals and @diamondlightsource.bsky.social VMXm beamline.
Starting the next session Dr Adam Crawshaw from Diamond telling us what what we can do with our microscrystals @adamcrawshaw.bsky.social
Next up William Houppy presenting his work, on his birthday as well 🎂 what better way to celebrate than at the Northern Structural Biology meeting 😉
