42nd Mid-Atlantic Macromolecular Crystallography Meeting
University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA
May 31 – June 2, 2012

The 42nd Mid-Atlantic Macromolecular Crystallography Meeting (MAMCM) will be held at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, Virginia, from May 31st through June 2nd, 2012.  The MAMCM serves as a platform for the presentation of the latest research results and technical advances, and as a forum to facilitate discussions amongst structural biologists in the mid-Atlantic region. Registration is now open at http://www.mid-atlantic.org.  There is no registration fee.

This year the keynote speaker will be Dr. William Weis from the Stanford University School of Medicine. The meeting will also feature two interactive workshops: a Structure Determination Workshop led by Drs. Chruszcz and Cooper of Dr. Wladek Minor's laboratory and featuring Dr. Jim Pflugrath, and a Lipidic Cubic Phase (LCP) Crystallization Workshop led by Dr. Vadim Cherezov of The Scripps Research Institute.

Platform presentations will be selected from submitted abstracts. Preference will be given to young researchers (students and fellows), and a Student/Fellow Poster Prize(s) will also be awarded.

We have blocked off rooms at several local hotels, as well as conveniently located suites provided by University Housing.

IMPORTANT: The MAMCM coincides with a reunion weekend at the University of Virginia.  Please reserve your accommodations early!  Note that most of the blocked rooms will be released on April 30th.


Respectfully,
Drs. David Cooper, Peter Horanyi and Michael Purdy
Co-Directors of the MAMCM
