MADaC 2015
Multi-axis goniometry, more simplistically known as kappa goniometry, is being installed at a growing number of macromolecular crystallography end-stations worldwide. However, the great potential of the technique when approaching challenging structure determination remains to be fully exploited. This workshop, second of its kind, brings together experimenters and developers experts in the field in order to identify current bottlenecks and to explore possible solutions using aspects of kappa goniometry optimised for data collection strategies and processing for facilitating phase retrieval of difficult samples.
In image to the first workshop, both lectures and practicals will be given. Data collection practicals will be performed at beam line PROXIMA-1 of the Synchrotron SOLEIL near Paris.
Data processing tutorials will be on the following provisional program: program .
