The CIISB facilities at IBT have been undergoing the following organizational changes.
Featuring expert speakers from Instruct Centres across Europe, the Instruct-ERIC webinar series, Structure Meets Function, highlights some of the latest developments in structural biology, demonstrating how integrative methods are enabling scientists to decipher the mechanisms that underpin health and disease.
Registration is open for the ninth webinar in the series, which will be hosted by Instruct Centre Finland on 13 April 2021, 11:00 - 12:30 CEST. The upcoming webinar will feature talks on the application of structural biology methods, (native mass spectrometry, crystallography, sample preparation for advances structural analyses) to better understand key aspects of macromolecular structures and interactions.
Talk 1: Biocomplex: Sample preparation strategies for biomolecular complexes
Speaker: Minna Poranen
Talk 2: Switching on ADP-ribosylation at the DNA damage site
Speaker: Lari Lehtiö
Talk 3: High-resolution native mass spectrometry as a versatile tool in structural biology
Speaker: Juha Rouvinen
Moderator: Sarah Butcher
You can view the full abstracts and register on the Instruct-ERIC website, where you can also watch recordings of the previous webinars.
