The next talk is from Dr Éilis McClay from the University of Glasgow

Afternoon starts with former #Salgadolab student @adamcrawshaw.bsky.social getting the audience engaged on #microcrystals and @diamondlightsource.bsky.social VMXm beamline.

Starting the next session Dr Adam Crawshaw from Diamond telling us what what we can do with our microscrystals @adamcrawshaw.bsky.social

Next up William Houppy presenting his work, on his birthday as well 🎂 what better way to celebrate than at the Northern Structural Biology meeting 😉

Next up @augustsilale.bsky.social telling us about molecular motor proteins

Next up some updates from CCP4 @ccp4mx.bsky.social

Starting the day with our keynote speaker Prof Harry Low @lowlab.bsky.social

Another exciting day in Newcastle for structural biology! The CCP4 Structural Biology Meeting 2025 is here!

Finished the day with an inside view of our brand new shinny microscope! Exciting times ahead for our #structuralbiology NE community!

Last talk of the day from Dr Ting-Yu Lin from telling us about ‘how enzymes write RNA’

Starting the next session : CryoEM in the North East, Dr Paul James from Northumbria University

Dr Emma Hesketh @heskethemma.bsky.social tells us about what we can do with the Midlands Regional CryoEM facility

Next up @jnb-lab.bsky.social talking about his work on the mycobacterial cell envelope

Next up in out ‘Enabling Technology’ - Prof Vicky Gold from the University of Exeter telling us about Structural Cell Biology in the South West

Next up : Matt Iadanza from CCP-EM with an overview of the available software and training

Atieh Aminian from @thermofishersci.bsky.social tells us more about the capabilities of our new Tundra microscope

Back in the toon to celebrate the launch of the Tundra! Congratulations to everyone involved in making this possible 👏 #NorthernEye #cryoEM @nusbf.bsky.social @thermofishersci.bsky.social

Keynote lecture from @stemuench.bsky.social giving us a historical perspective of EM and the exciting challenges left to explore

A great overview of #cryoEM in Newcastle from @jmarlesw.bsky.social at #NorthernEye opening @nusbf.bsky.social

Woo. The big day is finally here. @jmarlesw.bsky.social kicking off the Northern Eye Opening Symposium

nusbf.ncl.ac.uk/blog/2025/08... If you want to see the progress of the installation of the Tundra TEM at @nusbf.bsky.social @newcastleuni.bsky.social Johan has been kindly updating the website with pictures as it is being assembled.

Sneak peek at what our Tundra can do. 🤩

Exciting times for #structuralbiology for @newcastleuni.bsky.social and the North East!

Recently me and a student give this a go on a recent dataset of a 60 kDa domain that had orientation bias with streaky 2ndary structure. Nothing improved until we tried the more intensive ab-initio settings which gave us one nice class. Oddly global refinement brings back the orientation bias 1/n

More exciting events happening this week. Looking forward to welcoming you all to Newcastle :)

Looking forward to the Grand Opening of the Northern Eye Imaging facility on 5th November at the Frederick Douglass Centre, Newcastle. Register now nusbf.ncl.ac.uk/ccpem-tfs-ne... for the latest #structuralbiology and #cryoem in the region, to see the new Tundra cryo-TEM and lots more!

We are very much looking forward to the Grand Opening of the Northern Eye Imaging facility tomorrow! Follow us here for all the news coming from NUSBF!
