Data management. Data sharing. Repositories. Sound familiar? There is growing demand to make the data used in research available to other scientists to accelerate the pace of discovery and allow for reproduc- ibility. This sounds simple enough, but what data should be shared and how? This will vary depending on the particular field of research. To support research communities in developing and adopting data sharing guidelines that work for that them, the Society is hosting this workshop to bring together communities that are at various stages of that process so that they can share information and learn from each other. During this inaugural workshop, attendees will be discussing data sharing stan- dards for modeling, small angle scattering, NMR, and EM.

You finally have a job working in biophysics, in industry or academia, with some funding and a lab, but you’ve realized that the career challenges continue. Come relax and network with your contemporaries and senior biophysicists over a beer or glass of wine. This event is a great chance to compare notes with colleagues and discuss one-on-one your unique solu- tions to issues that arise in the time between getting your job and getting your next promotion, including management of lab staff, getting your work published, and renewing your funding. Refreshments are provided, with cash bar. Biophysics Austria Mixer 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm, Rivergate Room, Lobby Level Student Research Achievement Award (SRAA) Poster Competition 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm, Hall B2 & C Support contributed by the Journal of Physical Chemistry This session features students who are presenting posters at the Meeting and have pre-registered for the competition. During the SRAA competi- tion, students will give a five-to-seven minute oral presentation of their poster to one or more judges. Winners will be recognized on Monday evening prior to the National Lecture. Biophysical Journal Editorial Board Dinner 6:00 pm - 10:00 pm, Latrobe’s on Royal Exhibitor Presentation Molecular Devices LLC 6:30 pm – 8:00 pm, Room 221 Getting the Most Out of Your Experiments with pCLAMP and HumSi- lencer Technology The patch-clamp technique remains the best method for evaluating ion channel physiology, and since 1983 Axon Instruments has been the gold standard in patch-clamp equipment. Axon Instruments continues to push the envelope with new innovations with best-in-class systems and software. Join this workshop to learn about our latest breakthrough, HumSilencer technology, built into the Digidata 1550B Data Acquision System. Hum- Silencer is a new and easy way to eliminate 50 or 60 Hz line synchronous noise and associated high frequency harmonics WITHOUT the use of a filter. In addition to HumSilencer, pCLAMP remains the industry standard software package for electrophysiology because of its power, flexibility and ease of use. Are you getting the most out of your pCLAMP software? Join this workshop to learn more about how you can maximize what you can do with pCLAMP and learn something you may not know.
