Mastering FABRIC Tips and Tricks
Date: November 25, 2024
Time: 3:00 PM – 4:40 PM ET
Join us on November 25, from 3 – 4:40 PM, for a comprehensive webinar on “Facility Ports,” dedicated to unlocking the potential of FABRIC’s facility ports and their capabilities, featuring FABRIC lead team member Tom Lehman and FABRIC user Ben Formby. The tutorial will explore the powerful capabilities of FABRIC’s facility ports, including practical guidance on how they can be utilized effectively within experimental setups. This tutorial will cover an overview of facility ports, detailing their benefits and considerations for practical use. Tom will break down the two primary ways to access facility ports: first, by providing step-by-step guidance on requesting facility port creation, and second, by explaining how to use the facility ports with Chameleon. Tom will illustrate these concepts with two straightforward examples, clarifying each method’s process and application.
Additionally, the speakers will present two real-world use cases to deepen your understanding of these approaches.
Use Case #1: Facility Port Creation—the ERN CryoEM use case will be further discussed during Maureen Dougherty’s User-Led Webinar on November 26.
Use Case #2: Chameleon Integration – Ben Formby’s experience and insights on leveraging Chameleon with facility ports will be showcased live during the webinar.
The webinar will conclude with a 20-minute Q&A session, providing an open forum to ask questions, clarify details, and gain insights from our presenters.
