11th Structural Biology Club of the Czech Society for Structural Biology
online on 26 October 2022, 1 pm with the following scientific talks kindly delivered by our guests:

Expert modeling of RNA 3D structure ‐ examples from CASP‐RNA
Presented by Marta Szachniuk, Institute of Computing Science, Poznan University of Technology

Exploring the functional potential of nucleic acids using artificial evolution
Presented by Edward A. Curtis, Institute of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry, Czech Academy of Sciences, Prague

Moderator: Jiří Černý, Institute of Biotechnology, Czech Academy of Sciences, Vestec

3rd StruBioMol Workshop will be held on November 2- 3, 2022 in Vienna – University of Vienna, Max Perutz Labs.

The workshop is focused on protein structure determination, refinement and validation, and is primarily intended for master’s and doctoral students or postdoctoral fellows.

More details are available in the attached pdf.

Deadline for registration is 26.10.2022

The next conference – XIX Discussions in Structural Molecular Biology and the 6th User meeting of CIISB in Nové Hrady – is planned on 23-25 March 2023. The full registration to the event will be open in January 2023.  

Please, mark the dates in your diaries and be ready to register in January. We hope to see you all in March 2023.

The 24th Heart of Europe Bio-Crystallography meeting will take place on the South of Bohemia on the bank of Lipno Lake and near to Sumava mountains in the Hotel Resort Relax at Dolni Vltavice. The HEC24 will be organized by the group of Ivana Kuta Smatanova from the Faculty of Sciences University of South Bohemia Ceske Budejovice. It is a great honour to welcome Kay Diederichs, a professor of Molecular Bioinformatics at the Department of Biology, University of Konstanz to give a HEC24 plenary lecture that will explain the concepts behind X-ray data quality indicators, which are still not appreciated by many practicing crystallographers.
