The International Conferences for the crystallization of Biological Macromolecules aims to exchange research results and promote practical applications of biological crystallization and structural determination. After a break due to the international COVID-19 pandemic, we are thrilled to announce that ICCBM-18 is returning in 2024. The ICCBM conference series are hosted with venues that change regularly to encourage worldwide participation and inclusion. ICCBM organizes and supports interdisciplinary workshops, endorsed by a wide range of attendance of researchers, including bio-crystallographers, biochemists, physicists and engineers. ICCBM-18 will be held in Tempe, Arizona at Arizona State University, from November 3-9, 2024. ICCBM-18 will host three days of talks and scientific posters, followed by two days of practical, hands-on sessions.

Henry Chapman
Henry Chapman develops methods in coherent X-ray imaging and helped to create serial femtosecond crystallography as part of his pioneering work to establish the principles of outrunning radiation damage using X-ray free-electron laser pulses. His current research is focused on extracting better structural information from serial diffraction data and in extending the approach down to the smallest possible crystals: that is, single molecules. In this effort he is combining crystallography with extreme focusing to enable time-resolved imaging from 2D crystals and nanocrystals..

Robert Fischetti
Robert (Bob) Fischetti is the Life Science Advisor to the APS Director and Group Leader of The National Institute of General Medical Sciences and National Cancer Institute Structural Biology facility (GM/CA). Fischetti oversees the development and application of new capabilities to use APS’s very bright X-rays to investigate the structures of infectious diseases, laying the groundwork for treatments and vaccines. Fischetti is an expert in applications of synchrotron radiation, including X-ray optics, beamline design, construction, and operations. His experience with synchrotron radiation started in 1981 as a user at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource (SSRL) in California. Since then, he has built several instruments and full beamlines at NSLS and APS and applied a variety of X-ray techniques to study challenging problems in the biological and environmental sciences. Most recently, Fischetti was at the forefront of work at the APS to understand SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. Much of what we know about the structure of that virus was learned using the APS. He worked with the life sciences representatives at U.S. light sources and the Diamond Light Source to develop a strategy to minimize the impact of the year-long shutdown of the APS for user access to beamtime.
Fischetti is a member of the DOE Biological and Environmental Research Advisory Committee (BERAC) and the American Crystallographic Society. His group was the recipient of the 201 R&D 100 award for the development of the “Hard X-ray Uni-body Quad Collimator for Structural Biology”
