ℹ️ Virtual only participation is also possible so you don't have to be available for the on-site part!
THE application deadline for our Autumn Course on Solution X-ray Scattering is coming up. Online lectures and demonstrations from Oct 6 - 10 and the chance to participate in our new SAXSQUEST.
Looking to extend your SAXS analysis across larger length scales? We've got you covered with AF4-SAXS at P12! And hot off the press — our new 'how-to-get-started' manual is now available!
A big thank you to all speakers and tutors of the CSSB & EMBL Workshop!
And a special thank you to the fantastic cohort of participants who came to Hamburg. Great discussions and a joy to share the excitement for science!

Here,too.
Especially the reminder that: "challenges of fixed-term contracts are not experienced equally or evenly.
They vary depending on identity factors including race, gender, sexuality, disability status, and more - intersections of identity may mean experiences are compounded."
This‼️ Limited-term contracts are one of the strangest developments in academia, with significant impacts on personal lives.
Two stages of writing:
1) This shouldn't take too long
2) Oh no
Fantastic to be in the classroom (and later at the beamline) discussing the many benefits of incorporating SAXS into integrative modeling. Day 5 of #EMBOStructBio here in Hamburg, and the students are still very motivated!

Great to see @ebi.embl.org (the organisation I am Director of, part of @embl.org) on this site “corporately” +notice the “correct” domain name (and for EMBL watchers, note is .embl.org not .ac.uk - the latter a hangover from academic network joining rules in the 1990s). Stay tuned to both for more

little red bump = large portion of happiness as the X-ray re-enters our orbit ... however, that will mean less time to explore the blue skies.
Thanks @jeffkinney.bsky.social, now my kids can keep busy reading #HotMess and #SoEinSchlamassel , while I get to explore this new sky! #BlueSkyMoment #ParentWin

Figure generated at #leonardo.ai with"A whimsical digital illustration of two cartoonish characters with resemblance to a star wars figure, delicately rendered in soft pastel hues, one has a bright orange spacesuit the other a blue one, one hiding the blue twitter bird behind his back the other holding a blue butterfly"
...realizing that switching to blue skies is as easy as having AI create a matching picture to announce to your Twitter friends—only to realize there’s no one left to see the announcement. #All_gone

Decided to change my obsession with gathering political updates every few seconds and have volunteered to take care of kid#3's class photo shoot. Realizing too late that it involves hosting all the 9yo's at my home. New kind of madness expected.
