Satellite Workshop
“BioOrbit: coupling methods for exploring structures of increasing
complexity from molecules to tissues”

on Monday 19th (afternoon) & Tuesday 20th January, 2009

Auditorium Bloch
at CEA L'Orme des Merisiers (next to SOLEIL), Saint Aubin (France)

**************************************************

Associated to the 4th SOLEIL Users' Meeting, the satellite Workshop
entitled « « BioOrbit: coupling methods for exploring structures of
increasing complexity from molecules to tissues » is organized by
SOLEIL on Monday 19th afternoon and Tuesday 20th January, 2009 at the
Auditorium Bloch located at CEA L’Orme des Merisiers (next to SOLEIL).

Context and objectives
The complexity of living organisms and how they function presents a
huge challenge to modern biology. Multiple interactions and inter-
relations at increasing levels of complexity (from a molecular level
through to the level of cells or tissue) need to be taken into account
in order to understand how an organism functions. The measurement
tools that a biophysicist has at her disposal vary in the scale of
resolution from macroscopic to atomic, and it is essential to combine
these tools in order to have this “holistic” view of complex
biological mechanisms. Much work is in progress on the development of
multimodal approaches in order to obtain this holistic view, but it is
often difficult, amongst the plethora of biophysical techniques
available, to choose the best methods to address a particular
biological question. SOLEIL is at the forefront of the development of
“holistic” approaches, in that it offers beamline facilities capable
of an unusually large range of biophysical measurement possibilities
and a wide range of opportunites for combined approaches. The
different beamlines give access to measurements varying in resolution
from the atomic (X-ray diffraction, Small angle scattering, mass
spectroscopy, Synchrotron Radiation Circular Dichroism) up to cells
and tissues (UV imaging, IR imaging and spectroscopy), with further
beamlines in the life sciences already in the planning stage. BioOrbit
will endeavour to illustrate the different synchrotron techniques and
their complementarity with other techniques such as Cryo-electron
microscopy, soft X-ray imaging, NMR etc.

On-line registrations are available until the 4th January, 2009 on the
