Three intense days of talks and plenary sessions at the Arctic Circle Assembly #ACA2025 in #Reykjavík! This year a group of 13 wonderful students joined as part of a course #LbhÍ #EnChiL #Nordic MSc programme
The ACA 2025 T-shirt photo contest is now closed. Thanks to everyone who shared your stories and moments in the shirt! Winner announcements coming soon!

Wrapped up another conference for the year at the #ACA2025 - thanks to the organisers for putting on a great conference! I greatly enjoyed bringing my work on clustering 🐮🐷🤷♀️ to a new audience - the conference dinner had some pretty neat views too!
Made it back from #ACA2025! It was so great to reconnect with folks and meet some of you in real life for the first time. In person meetings are really the best. See you at #IUCr2026!
A very big thank you to the @acastructuralsci.bsky.social team for making the #ACA2025 meeting such a success! Looking forward to seeing everyone at @iucr2026.bsky.social in Calgary, AB, next year!

A great end to the #ACA2025 meeting in Chicago! Great to meet so many colleagues in both the X-ray and electron diffraction worlds and present some of our latest research work from VMXm and eBIC at DLS, and the RFI. Many thanks to the organisers!

The @acastructuralsci.bsky.social Service SIG community is here at #ACA2025 Chicago, IL with Chairs past+2 (Ed), past+1 (Dan), past (Josh), present (Nate) & future (Carla) with other officers.
See you at IUCr (iucr2026.org) & learn about ACA’s Scientific Interest Groups: amercrystalassn.org
#ACA2025 such a blast! Great to meet with my old lab mate Justin Flatt (now at RCSB) and @cdsnow.bsky.social !
Many thanks to Jack Nicoludis and Vardhan Satalkar for putting together such an excellent de novo protein design session at #ACA2025. Every single talk was outstanding and I learned a lot.
This traffic is brutal and we were late in leaving the hotel and I’m worried the boat will leave without us. However, I’m pretty sure the president of the American Crystallographic Association is on this bus. Surely they wouldn’t leave without the president, right? Riiiiiiight? #ACA2025

As part of the 75th Annual @acastructuralsci.bsky.social Meeting, over 100 attendees participated in a tour of the Advanced Photon Source at Argonne National Laboratory!
Thanks for the amazing tour!

Our #ACA2025 Tuesday sessions include our biannual Fiber Diffraction session. I really enjoy this session! Leading off is Joseph Orgel talking on fiber diffraction of collagen and paleontologic studies. @acastructuralsci.bsky.social

Are you at the ACA annual meeting in Lombard, Illinois? Have you stopped by our MiTeGen booth #14 to see the latest tools and instruments for crystallography and cryoEM? There is still time! Stop by to chat. Let us know about your latest research. #ACA2025
It's been great at #ACA2025 and there's still so much more excellent science to hear about! Got my walking shoes on for the APS tour later today 😁

It's very ... sweet in the #aca2025 exhibit hall tonight thanks to @thermofisher and @ccdc_cambridge
If you are the exhibit hall at @acastructuralsci.bsky.social #ACA2025 come by booth 35 to learn more about the NIH sponsored #cryoEM service centers that offer access to cryoEM technologies and training at not cost at the point of access.

Go, PDB depositors, go!
Also if you at at #ACA2025 and missed my talk today, you can catch my other talk on Tuesday in 4.2.3 Engaging Students with Crystallography where I will share lessons learned from creating/running a protein crystallography CURE!
Gave a talk in the Hot Structures session today at #ACA2025 in Chicago!
Fun fact: the first conference talk I ever gave was in 2010 at my first ACA meeting, also in the Hot Structures session, also in Chicago!! (See bonus pic below of me attending ACA2010) ☺️
And if you see me at #ACA2025 say hi!
Structural Dynamics is honored to sponsor the #ACA2025 Judith Flippen-Anderson Lectureship! Congratulations to Maura Malinska on being named this year’s recipient 👏 Stop by Booth 12 to learn more!
