Sino-Europe Workshop on 

Advances in Synchrotron Radiation Studies of Metalloproteins

Beijing. June 26-30, 2004

Institute of High Energy Physics (Beijing, China)

                                                                    Second announcement

 

  This workshop is directed to scientists with experience in PX and/or BioXAS and potential Chinese users who proceed biological researches.

The workshop will cover X-ray diffraction and X-ray absorption spectroscopy and their applications, including MAD (SAD), EXAFS refinement and the first principle-based XANES simulation. (see scientific programme)

      The format of the meeting will consist of a number of invited oral presentations followed by extended discussion with all the participants, short oral and poster presentations of young scientist
