King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi is delighted to announce a newly designed Conceptual Course in Macromolecular Structure Determination, offered from June 9 – July 9, 2025.

The course covers Macromolecular Crystallography and Cryo Electron Microscopy, and is designed for both novices and experienced structural biologists. It is conceptual, and the content is complementary to traditional courses that can be found in universities or on-line.

Those who can determine 3D structures of macromolecules, will acquire much better understanding of basic concepts and, crucially, will undergo comprehensive training in two of the most popular software suits, CCP4 and Phenix.

Participants, who currently do not have skills for solving structures, but would like to do so, will acquire good understanding of how these methods work, and learn enough to work independently on straightforward cases. They will also learn enough to be able to attend more advanced courses in future.

The course will offer two tiers.

• Tier 1 will consist of the theoretical parts only, for both MX and Cryo-EM.
• Tier 2 will cover both the theory and training in software.
