Plans for the NIH Protein Structure Initiative
Columbus A-B
08:00pm - 09:30pm
EVENING SESSIONS
Judy Flippen Anderson, Presiding
The NIH recently announced its plans for the next phase of the
Protein Structure Initiative (PSI). Beginning in 2005, this production
phase will comprise an interacting network with three
components: large-scale research centers, specialized research
centers focused on methods development and challenging proteins,
and disease-targeted research centers (pending). At the
ACA workshop, John Norvell, director of the PSI, will describe
the project and will summarize the two recent Requests for Applications
(RFAs) that will support the first two components of
the PSI.
02.02 Crystallographic Laboratory Practices
Columbus C-D
08:00pm - 09:30pm
Alicia Beatty, Presiding
This session aims to be an informal, hopefully informative and
enjoyable, panel discussion concerning issues that come up in
the service laboratory. It will cover such subjects as publishing,
authorship, charges for services, general laboratory practices.
Refreshments will be served.
