DESCRIPTION:                                         
                                                  
                                       \n\nThe Membrane
  Protein Working Group is dedicated to explore the unique challenges invol
 ved in research on the structural biology of membrane proteins. In our fir
 st online workshop in May 2021\, we discussed several aspects of expressio
 n systems\, protein purification\, membrane solubilization and other prepa
 ration methods. Our winter workshop is the continuation to further explore
  topics related to the “Structural Resolution of Membrane Proteins: From
  Sample Preparation to Structural Resolution”.\n\nThe production of high
 -quality membrane protein crystals is always very challenging so we contin
 ue to cover more topics like multi-protein complexes\, detergent trials an
 d crystallization strategies such as LCP and Hi-LIDE. We will also invite 
 scientists to introduce their best practices on Cryo-EM or neutron structu
 res\, scattering techniques\, and data collection and processing.\n\nIn th
 e spring we welcomed more than 200 participants from PhD students to senio
 r researchers from a range of disciplines. Due to the new directions of th
 e corona situation we have now decided to make this event fully digital as
  well. We kindly ask PhD students and postdocs to submit a short abstract 
 if they are interested in giving a short talk. \n\nWhere: on Zoom\nWhen: 
 December 7th – 8th (noon-to-noon) CET 2021\nAbstract submission deadline
