CCP-EM: Collaborative Computational Project for Electron cryo-Microscopy
Supported by the UK Medical Research Council, the Collaborative Computational Project for Electron cryo-Microscopy (cryoEM) provides support in computational areas for users and developers in biological cryoEM.
Community
Build a UK Community for computational aspects of cryoEM. Provide a focus for the cryoEM community to interact with related communities (CCP4, CCPN, CCPBioSim, VolumeEM) as well as the broader international community.
Educate
Support the users of software for cryoEM through dissemination of information on available software, directed training, online resources, and community events.
Support
Support for researchers through provision of a software suite. Support for software developers including porting, testing and distribution of software, and organisation of hackathons.
The creation of CCP-EM in 2012 was funded through a 3-year Partnership Grant from the MRC which has been renewed in 2016 and 2021.
CCP-EM is hosted by UKRI-STFC Scientific Computing. Our core team is located at the Research Complex at Harwell on the Harwell Campus, site of eBIC. Our main activities include:
CCP-EM Software Suite
Produce the CCP-EM Software Suite to distribute programs for cryoEM data processing from our consortium of developers.
Support and Training
Provide training for cryoEM software through CCP-EM workshops, and support the UK national cryoEM facility eBIC.
