  1. PiMS at the OPPF Jon Diprose EMBO Course EBI, 23/09/2008

  2. Overview • The OPPF • Workflows and Protocols • Using PiMS at the OPPF

  3. Aims of the OPPF • To develop technology for high throughput protein production and crystallisation. • To apply this technology to challenging biomedical problems through the development of a portfolio of collaborative projects. • To make the technology available to the wider structural biology community. http://www.oppf.ox.ac.uk/
