Structural Biology Club (old version)

Join us in monthly webinars of the Czech Society of Structural Biology at 1pm!

The CSSB invites the Czech structural biology community (and beyond) to regular online seminars ‘SB Club‘ on the last Wednesdays of month. The focus will be on current topics of structural biology and closely related areas of research.
