NRAMM Biennial Workshop on Advanced Topics in EM Structure Determination

描述（由申请人提供）：我们正在申请资金，以部分支持由国家自动分子显微镜资源于2012年11月和2014年11月主办的两年一次的研讨会。这个持续的研讨会建立在一个建立良好且非常成功的系列（2003年11月、2005年11月、2007年11月、2009年11月）的基础上，对使用分子显微复制作为结构技术的科学家群体产生了很大的影响。研讨会的主要目的是提供一个场所，集中讨论分子显微镜领域面临的最紧迫的技术挑战。在为期一周的密集学习、互动和讨论中，研讨会汇集了资深思想领袖、追求新方法的新研究者、博士后研究员、研究生、其他领域的知名研究者、行业合作伙伴和其他感兴趣的各方。讲习班的介绍以幻灯片和音频文件的形式，通过一个网站向一般社区散发，这大大增加了讲习班的影响，超过了一周的时间和大约140名与会者。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We are requesting funds in partial support of a biennial workshop to be hosted by the National Resource for Automated Molecular Microscopy, in November 2012 and November 2014. This continuing workshop builds on a well-established and very successful series (held in November 2003, 2005, 2007, 2009) that has had a high impact on the community of scientists using molecular microcopy as a structural technique. The primary objective of the workshop is to provide a venue for focused discussion of the most pressing technical challenges facing the field of molecular microscopy. The workshop brings together senior thought leaders, new investigators pursuing novel approaches, postdoctoral fellows, graduate students, established investigators in others fields, industrial partners, and other interested parties, in an intensive week of learning, interaction and discussion. The workshop presentations, in the form of slides and audio files, are disseminated via a web site to the general community, which substantially increases the impact of the workshop beyond the one week duration and the ~140 participants.
