Overall, this symposium will showcase X-ray crystallography and integrative structural biology approaches that continue to transform science and translational medicine. Hosts include the Structural Biology Department at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and the Southeast Regional Collaborative Access Team (SER-CAT) at the Advanced Photon Source. This 18th annual SER-CAT user meeting is in support of X-ray crystallography and advancement of synchrotron-based research in meeting tomorrow’s scientific challenges.
Because of COVID, this year's SER-CAT user meeting will be held online, affording a unique opportunity for the St. Jude community to attend. You will hear from leaders in the structural biology field whose scientific contributions have far-reaching impact with high relevance to the science being conducted at St. Jude.
