[Neutron] Copenhagen Benzon Symposium on Current highlights in Structural Biology - last chance for registration

[Bente Vestergaard]

Dear Colleague,

We are organizing The Copenhagen Benzon Symposium, focusing on current highlights within structural biology. The meeting is organized by the end of August, just at the time when Copenhagen is most lively and inviting. We are very proud that we can present an exciting program with presentations from some of the most distinguished researchers in the field. Please find a list of confirmed speakers below.

Please note that this is the last chance to register for the symposium. Please find the necessary information below! 
I very much hope to see you in Copenhagen in August!!!

Best regards, on behalf of Joe Zaccai, Dmitri Svergun, Lise Arleth and myself

Bente

Monday, August 24 to Thursday, August 27,　2015

at Hotel Skt Petri, Copenhagen, Denmark

　

With the 61st Benzon Symposium:　"Structural Biology on the Move" 　we wish to highlight a collection of the most intriguing analytical challenges in the light of selected splendid achievements within structural biology. Notably, we will cover magnitudes of length-scales, from high-resolution analysis to whole-cell imaging, promoting current important development within hybrid structural analysis, where methods across boundaries between established and emerging disciplines are applied. With the 61st Benzon Symposium, we aim to envision the grand opportunities that are to come in structural biology.

　

The Symposium is a full 4-day scientific meeting.　The format will be a combination of state-of-the-art lectures by invited speakers, by selected oral-poster presentations, and poster presentations.
