This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. Macromolecular crystallography user training workshops are held at SSRL to familiarize users who would like to collect data remotely with the available tools and processes or to provide in-depth individualized training on the beam lines. Three workshops were held this year. Attendees are introduced to the experimental equipment and the computing facilities available both locally and remotely. Participants are instructed on how to effectively use Blu-Ice, Web-Ice and the remote access tools. Training topics include 1) how to prepare and ship samples for use with the Stanford Automated Mounting (SAM) system, 2) automated crystal screening and data collection, 3) fluorescence scans and MAD experiments, and 4) strategy determination for data collection using Web-Ice.
