DGK 2009 Poster Price Winners
Jena Bioscience again sponsored the prices for the three best posters in the category “biological structures”at this year’s DGK annual meeting (DGK = Deutsche Gesellschaft für Kristallographie, German Crystallographic Association) in Hannover. This has become sort of a tradition - we sponsored the price for the third time this year. Although we were not exhibiting at this meeting, Thomas went up to Hannover to attend the conference banquet and to hand over the prices to the lucky winners.
With this sponsorship, Jena Bioscience aims to support young creative scientists from the crystallography community. And no, we were not part of the jury that chose the best posters :-)
Congratulations again to the three of you!

EMBO World Lecture in Pune, India - Thank you Biotech Desk!
India is a growing economy and a growing player in the field of crystallography with around 40 groups now. The 2008 EMBO World Lecture Course on “RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN MACROMOLECULAR CRYSTALLOGRAPHY” took place in Pune from November 9th to 14th. The lecturers, both from
India and elsewhere, included internationally renowned scientists such as
Ted Baker, Eleanor Dodson, Zbyszek Dauter, Gerard Kleywegt, S. Mande.,
T.P. Singh, Joel Sussman, M. Vijayan and B-C. Wang.

Impressions from Biotechnica 2008
“The first BIOTECHNICA to be staged under the new annual cycle successfully passed its first test….The changeover to an annual cycle has proven the right decision” says the end-of-show report at Biotechnica website. As a start: Deutsche Messe organized the exhibition perfectly. Not only in terms of on-site support, but also in terms of online features for exhibitors. However, the show has become smaller and my impression was that there were more joint biotech region booths than last year. Nevertheless, after a rather slow start of the show, the stream of visitors was enormous. One reason for that might be that the visitors only had one exhibition hall to stroll around this year ;-). We had interesting talks with our customers, established good contacts and our chocolate fountain attracted many visitors to stop by at our booth.
The future will show whether the decision of the organizers to hold Biotechnica at annual intervals was the right one.
