Marie Curie Meeting room (ALBA Synchrotron)

Guifré Cuní (ALBA-CELLS), Jordi Juanhuix (Experiments), Roeland Boer (ALBA Synchrotron)

The MXCuBE project started in 2005 at ESRF, with the objective of providing crystallography beamlines users an easy-to-use software platform to run their experiments. In 2010, a collaboration agreement was signed for the development of MXCuBE between the major synchrotron facilities in Europe.

Today MXCuBE is actively supported by the following partners: ESRF, Soleil, MAX IV, HZB, EMBL, Global Phasing Ltd, DESY and ALBA. MXCuBE meetings are being held periodically every 6 months to actively follow up and further progress the collaboration. After the previous successful meetings (last two in June 2015 at HZB-Berlin and December 2014 at MaxIV-Lund), we have the occasion to meet at ALBA - Barcelona in 30th November-1st December 2015.

The ISPyB meeting will be held the following day, 2nd December, at the same premises.
