Abstract – User Training and Outreach The main goal of the User Training and Outreach Core within the Center for Biomolecular Structure (CBMS) is to prepare researchers to make the most efficient use of the Center’s resources; to communicate the diverse technical capabilities available at the Center, in part to recruit new users; and to provide clear information on the multidisciplinary aspects covered by the resources in the Center. Training includes one-on-one training sessions, and technique-focused workshops. In conjunction with online manuals and video clips, CBMS training provides researchers with a user-friendly platform to access and effectively employ available facilities. Further outreach activities include participation in conferences and workshops, and the development of a webpage to inform the larger community.
