#CCP4bb subtoot:
Next year's study weekend #CCP4SW should spend all 4 days devoted to discussing "Trim, set occupancy to zero, or let the B-factors handle it? - how to model disorder in #structuralbiology"

Guaranteed to keep crystallographers arguing for days.
#Crystallography @strucbio

Today's petty rebellion to bloated bureaucracy.

Finally got around to filling in the expense claim for travel to/from the #CCP4SW, paid on the corporate credit card.
This needs a reason for not using the corporate travel provider for the tickets. For the train, it was "too short notice", given the rail strikes. For the tram from/to the station in Nottingham, it was "It's a tram"! There is no category for 'local' rail transport, but there is for bus/coach/taxi etc.

It was really good to be back in person at the #CCP4SW last week. Very good talks, and a good chance to catch up with people I haven't seen in a long time.

@xtaldave Yep, trains on time and got back fine although activated the backup plan of changing at Kettering onto a slightly slower, but much quieter service.
A shame I had to miss the last #CCP4SW session (plus bonus delayed talk).

Utterly beautiful #glycotime on the cover of this years’s #CCP4SW programme 😍

Train back from #CCP4SW much busier than on Wednesday going the other way.
Lots of fun from the seat behind me with someone getting chinged for travelling on their mate's railcard! 🙀

#CCP4SW number of ants in the world shocker, nice demonstration of how big numbers are

2 x 10^16 BTW

Excellent music at the #CCP4SW dinner. So many 80s classics! 🤩

Ah but @graemewinter what _IS_ Data?

Aaaaaaaand we're back with What's New in CCP4...

#CCP4SW #Crystallography #StructuralBiology #Science

#ccp4sw WG1 remote participation was an unexpected opportunity to chat to colleagues across the country except those in Nottingham! ;)

Mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell DRIIIIIIIINK! #ccp4sw #xp

Quite happy that the people at #CCP4SW were treated to my massive ill face beaming down on them from the big screen at the end of the Diamond User Meeting :blobcatfingerguns: #xp

.. and the final talk of an excellent Diamond User Meeting is Daren Fearon talking about structure-enabled hit-to-lead development at XChem

#CCP4SW #StructuralBiology #Crystallography

Next:

Danny Axford discussing the capabilities of I24 for micro
and serial crystallography

#CCP4SW #StructuralBiology #Crystallography

First talk of the final session is Mike Hough talking about room temperature crystallography at VMXi

#CCP4SW #StructuralBiology #Crystallography

The final talk of the pre-coffee era is Anastasya Shilova talking about sample delivery for time-resolved SSX and XFEL

#CCP4SW #StructuralBiology #Crystallography

Talk four is Chris Orr talking about loooooooooooooong* wavelength data collection

#CCP4SW #StructuralBiology #Crystallography
*5.904011 angstrom

Next Up is Pedro Nunes talking about HeXI - high energy electron Crystallography

#CCP4SW #StructuralBiology #Crystallography

Very cool to hear about the first structure from #Diamond_MX #VMXm, work from a collaboration by my PhD supervisor Jon Grimes and my 1st PhD student Adam Crawshaw! Congrats! #ccp4sw
