X-Rays, Crystals, Molecules, and You. Judy Flippen- Anderson, Presiding.This workshop, designed for high school teachers and students, will include presentations on the general basics of Crystallography, the wealth of information derived from crystallography contained in the databases that store 3-dimensional structural results and examples of how this data can be used in the classroom. Presentations will also include a description of existing programs involving high school teachers and students for the rapid prototyping of molecular models. There will be mini-workshops on growing protein crystals and building molecular models, as well as hands-on interaction with the databases. Several of the high school students have contributed posters that will be on display as part of the Sunday evening poster session. .
