On 2nd July 2021, an esteemed member of our society, professor Jaroslav Koča, unexpectedly passed away. To commemorate his contribution to the development of science, you are invited to a one-day symposium entitled Jaroslav Koča Memorial Colloquium on Computational and Structural Biology organized by CEITEC, Masaryk University, on Tuesday, 30th November 2021, starting at 10:00 a.m. and ending at 19:00. This meeting will take place in the Hotel Continental in Brno.

The tentative program and detailed information are published on the event web page. The scientific part of the symposium will be followed by dinner and social evening. Please, register to the event by Monday, November 15, 2021, due to the limited capacity of the meeting room.

The next conference – XVIII Discussions in Structural Molecular Biology and the 5th User meeting of CIISB in Nové Hrady – is planned on 24-26 March 2022.
If the situation allows we would like to return to our on-site conference. Due to the uncertainty connected with the Covid-19 situation development we plan to open the full registration to the event in January 2022.

We will provide updates if there are changes to these plans. For the latest information check this web page.

Please, mark the dates in your diaries and be ready to register in January.
We hope to see you all in March 2022!
