Sixth annual CCPN conference

Efficient and Rapid Structure Determination by NMR

St Martins College, Ambleside, Cumbria

Mid-day Friday 28th July, to after lunch on Sunday 30th July

The Sixth CCPN meeting on 28th-30th July 2006 at St. Martins College, Ambleside (Cumbria, http://www.ucsm.ac.uk/).

The prospective title of the meeting is "Efficient and Rapid Structure Determination by NMR" with sub-topics of Pulse Sequences, Case studies, Structure Determination and Accuracy and quality.

Proposed speakers are:

  • Eiso AB, UtrechtUniversity, The Netherlands
  • Bernhard Brutscher, Institut de Biologie Structurale, Grenoble,France
  • Lucio Frydman, Weitzman Institute, Israel
  • Stephan Grzesiek, University of Basel, Switzerland
  • James Keeler, University of Cambridge
  • Steve Matthews, ImperialCollegeLondon
  • Michael Nilges, Institut Pasteur, Paris,France.
  • Joseph D. Puglisi, University of Stanford, USA
  • Jeffrey Skolnick, University at Buffalo, New York, USA
  • Tim Stevens, University of Cambridge
  • Geerten Vuister, Radboud University Nijmegen, The Netherlands
  • Markus Zweckstetter, National Institutes of Health, NIDDK, Bethesda, USA


The meeting will be the sixth in a series modeled on the annual CCP4 study weekend for X-ray Crystallography.  The aims of these meetings are to present current best practice for all aspects of macromolecular structure determination by NMR. The meeting is particularly aimed at PhD students and PostDocs, (mainly in the UK Biomolecular NMR community) and we have invited speakers who can discuss in detail the pros and cons of the different approaches that they are using.  Through discussion, we hope to come up with ideas as to how future NMR structural projects might best be tackled.

CCPN wants to encourage everyone to come and we will provide accommodation and meals for all UK participants from non-profit-making organisations.  We hope that attendees will be able to find their own transport costs to the meeting.

We plan to hold three sessions of about four speakers each, with ample time for discussion, over the course of the meeting, and will also include time for a poster session.  This year the meeting will be held in Ambleside again, which is in the Lake District, a very attractive part of the country.  We also, therefore, plan to organize some nice walks. 

Registration is now open

There will be a registration fee of 50.00 GBP per person (25 for those presenting a poster, which will be limited to 55 posters).  Registration will close in the middle of June.

A very limited amount of additional accommodation is available the night before the meeting, this will not be covered by the CCPN and is offered at a cost of 27.00 per person per night, payable in advance. Please confirm availability with Jane Stiles before sending your cheque.

We look forward to seeing you in Ambleside.
