@structurabio.bsky.social and @sickkidsto.bsky.social CryoSPARC workshop in Toronto! April 30/May 1st 2026. Part of the Canadian Cryo-EM Nexus. Please register here: sickkids.cventevents.com/event/a0aebb...
Dear Colleagues,

As part of the Canadian Cryo-EM Nexus, The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) and Structura Biotechnology are hosting a two-day CryoSPARC workshop at SickKids in Toronto on April 30 and May 1, 2026. Led by experts from Structura, this workshop offers a unique opportunity for participants with prior CryoSPARC experience to deepen their skills and become a key resource for cryo-EM image analysis within their institutions. 

Applicants should have hands-on experience with CryoSPARC, demonstrated by having processed at least two datasets, and must be committed to sharing their expertise with colleagues upon returning to their home institution.

There is no charge for participating in the workshop, which is sponsored by SickKids and Structura. Attendees will need to bring their own laptop computer and arrange for travel, accommodation, and meals. Given the limited capacity (15 students), we kindly request that interested individuals ensure that they can cover these costs before registering. 

Please register before February 20, 2026 using the following link:

https://sickkids.cventevents.com/event/a0aebb07-66e6-4cbe-b471-8009fe0c227c/summary?i=97c975e9-4bac-42b9-a1b2-95974110db9e&tm=DXVv8zGvH5uA7nqj8lEF4iifi-ukLal5QBBjdXWGD2E&locale=en-US

We look forward to welcoming you to this workshop.

Sincerely,
Samir Benlekbir and John Rubinstein (SickKids) & CryoSPARC Team (Structura)

Great collaboration with @guo-lab.bsky.social to determine an in situ architectural model of the Tad pilus machine. Be on the lookout soon for a preprint on the same topic by Grant Jensen and @viollierpat.bsky.social. #microsky
