NE-CAT is pleased to offer our Practical Crystallography Course, June 21-23, 2023 at Harvard Medical School in Boston, Massachusetts. The course will be a three day workshop hosted in conjunction with SBGrid. We are currently planning for three full days with a break for lunch and potentially an afternoon before the start of the workshop to make sure that computers are properly setup. Lunch and coffee breaks will be provided. The workshop remains free, but students are responsible for their own lodging and transportation. All students will need access to SBGrid during the workshop in order to participate. Temporary access to SBGrid can be provided. The workshop is limited to 20 participants. Priority will be given to those with data and/or problematic datasets, but curated datasets are also …

BioGrids for SBGrid Users Tutorial
Published November 5 2021
For SBGrid users who are already familiar with the SBGrid software installation platform, members may opt-in in to include the BioGrids software stack in their installation. BioGrids in an SBGrid-style collection of ~ 500 open source bioinformatics software titles, with collections for high-throughput sequencing, genomics, proteomics, visualization, image analysis, etc.
Our resident bioinformatics expert, Jim Vincent, recorded this brief tutorial - BioGrids for SBGrid Users - with more information on how SBGrid users can access this software stack. Contact us at help@biogrids.org with any questions.
