---- "Outreach and Training" activities for RBVI annual report and competitive grant renewals This wiki encompasses all RBVI outreach and training activities, not just those related to Chimera. The overall goal of the training component of the RBVI is twofold: to improve the general understanding of our technologies in the appropriate population and to create a cadre of biomedical researchers trained in the technology so that they can effectively apply it in their own research. Each entry below should include the following: * Title of event (e.g., EMBO electron microscopy workshop) * Nature of training (e.g., hands-on use of Chimera volume visualization tools) * Date(s) * Location * RBVI staff involved * Hours of instruction (includes lectures, labs, and prep time) * Number of attendees * Comments/remarks/related URLs (e.g., students brought their own data sets for analysis) ---- 2016/2017 report ---- May 30-June 4, 2016 Faculty at the EMBO Practical Course on Protein-Protein Interactions. A week-long master course funded by the European Molecular Biology Organization held at the Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest, Hungary. Taught sections on Cytoscape as well as Chimera and worked directly with a number of participants on their visualization and analysis challenges. 24 students, 16 hours preparation. * Scooter Morris June 5-8, 2016 [http://sites.psu.edu/bioinorganic/2016-bioinorganic-workshop Pennsylvania State Bioinorganic Workshop]. Two 4 hour hands-on workshops on using sequence similarity networks to aid in target selection, analyze metagenomics data, find and explore "linker" sequences, and explore genomic context. Approximately 20 attendees at each workshop. Approximately 1 week preparation + 8 hours teaching. * Shoshana Brown, Patsy Babbitt June 6-7, 2016 2 Day Ph.D. course offered at the Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest, Hungary. This was a shortened version of the 6 day course given the week before, but given for credit and pitched to a Ph.D. audience (although faculty were in attendance). Students were required to complete an assignment at the end of the course demonstrating their ability to combine network and structural analyses to investigate biological function. 30 participants, 8 hours preparation. * Scooter Morris June 14, 2016 Zika virus Chimera demonstration for 18 San Francisco high school students taking part in the [http://sep-sfhi.ucsf.edu UCSF Public Health Investigators] 4 week program. Showed 3d printing, cryoEM and atomic models, protein structure, crawling neutrophils, stereo visualization and oculus rift virtual reality. Two 45 minute demonstrations. 8 hours preparation. * Tom Goddard July 29, 2016 Introduction to network visualization and analysis with Cytoscape workshop given at the University of Southern Denmark in Odense, Denmark. 4 hours preparation. Estimated 20 attendees. * Scooter Morris August 15-16, 2016 Two day workshop at the University of Colorado, Boulder. Day 1 focused on structural visualization and analysis with UCSF Chimera and day 2 focused on network visualization and analysis with Cytoscape. 20 participants. * Scooter Morris September 1-2, 2016 Extended 2 day Cytoscape workshop for the National Cancer Institute on the NIH campus. Total of 24 participants. 16 hours preparation * Scooter Morris October 10, 2016 Crawling neutrophil demo, virtual reality vive headset for 14 officers of University of California Extramural Funding Group. Organized by Michael Nordberg at UCSF. 45 minute demonstration, 3 hours preparation. * Tom Goddard October 30, 2016 Bay Area Science Festival, [http://www.bayareascience.org/event/explorer-days-virtual-reality-and-white-blood-cells white blood cells in virtual reality]. Show 6 kids, 5 adults 3d microscopy of crawling cells with stereo projector and Vive VR headset. Showed nuclear pore on Oculus VR headset. Showed CAT lab and EM/NMR facility. 90 minute tour. Organized by Kishore Hari. 8 hours prep (made Oculus / Space Navigator work on Windows). * Tom Goddard November 21, 2016 EMBO Conference: [https://www.embl.de/training/events/2016/HYB16-01/programme/index.html Molecular Machines: Integrative Structural and Molecular Biology], Heidelberg.
