Instruct-ERIC is a European Research Infrastructure, providing researchers with access to high-end structural biology technologies and expertise, as well as enabling access to this equipment and expertise through an infrastructure distributed throughout Europe, with 15 members across the continent.
Structural Biology is currently in the middle of a revolution enabled by significant technology advances in recent years (direct electron detectors in EM, advances in synchrotron sources and detectors, XFELs, ultra-high field NMR, super-resolution cryo-light microscopy etc). For this reason, Instruct-ERIC is reviewing the structural biology capabilities within Europe to individuate possible updates in order to fully respond to the needs of the structural biology community.
It is thus important to have your feedback to support this activity: please fill in this short survey, and circulate it to your structural biology colleagues.
This is a reminder to apply for the Instruct-ERIC R&D Pilot Call - get funding of up to €15,000!
Closing 14:00 CEST on 15 April, the Instruct-ERIC R&D Funding Call invites early career researchers to submit proposals to access Instruct technology, equipment, and expertise from our 27 facilities across Europe for small scale pilot research projects in integrated structural biology.
Register now for the 32nd edition of the Instruct-ERIC Structure Meets Function webinar series, taking place on Zoom, 17 April at 11:00 CEST.
The latest webinar will have two speakers who have accessed the Instruct-ERIC facilities, expertise, and machinery via the ISIDORe project.
Talk 1: Nikitas Georgiou - National and Kapodistrian University of Athens
Title: Potential anti-inflammatory drugs
Talk 2: Séverine Padiolleau - Université de Technologie de Compiègne
Title: Identification of aptamers interacting with a protein target involved in lyme disease
