SUMMARY:Diffraction Methods in Structural Biology 2026
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to announce that registration is now open for Diffraction Methods in Structural Biology 2026 (DiffMet2026). The registration deadline is April 30th\, 2026. \nConference structure\n• July 19–20: Early Career Diffraction Methods Seminar – a meeting primarily organized by and for early-career researchers\n• From the evening of July 20 onward: Main DiffMet2026 Conference\nParticipants are welcome to attend both parts of the meeting. \nTheme: Limitations & Expansions of Diffraction Methods in Structural Biology\nDiffMet2026 focuses on diffraction-based methods in structural biology\, emphasizing a deep understanding of current methodological limitations and exploring strategies to extend or transcend them through innovation and multimodal approaches. \nTopics will include (but are not limited to):\n• Time-resolved crystallography and its fundamental limits\n• MicroED\, XFEL\, neutron diffraction\, and synchrotron-based methods\n• Detector performance\, radiation damage\, and achievable resolution\n• Integration of diffraction with complementary techniques\n• Roles and limitations of AI in data processing and structure prediction \nEarly Career Seminar: Growing the Future of Diffraction Methods\nThis seminar is aimed at early career researchers (i.e.\, students\, postdocs\, and all those not yet in a permanent position). It will include talks by the early career attendees\, as well as a poster session in the evening of July 19th; please submit your oral/poster presentation abstracts by *April 30\, 2026*. We will form the ECS scientific program on the basis of the submitted abstracts\, so all diffraction methods-related topics are welcome! In addition to the scientific talks and posters by early career attendees\, the ECS will also feature a keynote presentation by Montserrat Soler Lopez (ESRF) and a career panel. \nRegistration fee:\n• €1200 (includes accommodation and all meals)
