Host: Jason Key
Abstract. BioXTAS RAW is a program for analysis of Small-Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) data. The software enables: creation of 1D scattering profiles from 2D detector images, standard data operations such as averaging and subtraction, analysis of radius of gyration (Rg) and molecular weight, and advanced analysis using GNOM and DAMMIF. It also allows easy processing of inline SEC-SAXS data and data deconvolution using the evolving factor analysis (EFA) method.

Host: Jason Key
Abstract. The primary goals of docking methods are two: (1) ligand discovery, finding new molecules that bind a protein of interest; and (2) pose prediction: identifying how a molecule binds its receptor. Today, there are many molecular docking programs that perform these procedures. Each has their own flavor of sampling and scoring. Here, I will describe the current versions of DOCK -- the pioneering and well tested docking method ...

Host: Jason Key
Learn how to make movies showing how molecular structures fit in cryoEM maps using ChimeraX, the next generation version of the UCSF Chimera visualization program. We will make movies that show morphing, ambient occlusion lighting, and density near each fit residue, and will discuss ChimeraX virtual reality capabilities,including 360 degree stereoscopic movie recording.

Join us on March 23rd to learn more about RAPD from Northeastern Collaborative Access Team (NE-CAT) Assistant Director Frank Murphy. RAPD is new software for automated MX data analysis.
RAPD - New software for automated MX data analysis

Frank Murphy, Assistant Director
NE-CAT/Cornell University
Host: Jason Key
Abstract: RAPD is software for the orchestration of real time analysis and structure solution of MX data. RAPD was designed with the synchrotron user in mind, and has been in continuous use at NE-CAT for more than 5 years. As we approach a general distribution of RAPD to beamlines and single users, I will describe the software’s current capabilities and usage, complete with a live demo.
