We are happy to announce the 1st SciLifeLab workshop on Microcrystal Electron Diffraction (MicroED) that will take place in Stockholm on 10-12 September 2025. Aim of the workshop is to provide training on all steps of MicroED including latest developments of SerialED.

Participants will receive hands-on training in state-of-the-art techniques for MicroED including protein crystallization, grid preparation, MicroED and SerialED data collection, and processing of the collected data with the latest software pipeline. Participants are welcome to bring their own samples and data to be used during the workshop.

Participation in the entire workshop is mandatory and an attendance certificate will be given at the end of the workshop.

Application

You will need to submit your application in one combined pdf document, including a short CV and a motivation letter. The letter should describe briefly your current research project, and how this workshop will benefit you and your project. Please limit your motivation letter to one page.

We give priority to applicants with structural biology background that have projects that are suitable for MicroED.
