They will explore the concepts of folding, unfolding and misfolding, highlighting their differences and similarities. Practical exercises aim at transferring to students basic skills for the study of IDPs using bioinformatic tools to solve complex problems. The school includes a half-day workshop on ELIXIR interoperability services and support for the IDP community.<br><br>REGISTRATION FEE<br>300€ - Early bird till 15Nov 2019<br>400€ - Late registration till 15 Jan 2020<br>Registration fee includes course material, coffee breaks, lunches and dinners for five days.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>TRAINEE GRANTS<br>A limited number of fellowships will be available covering registration fee and hostel accommodation.<br>Participants will be selected based on their background in protein bioinformatics and a motivation statement.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Full details at<a href="http://disprotcentral.org/idpschool20" target="_blank"><span style='color:black'> </span>disprotcentral.org/idpschool20</a>.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>A flyer of the event is attached and available here for <a href="http://disprotcentral.org/assets/docs/Flyer-Brixen20.pdf" target="_blank">download</a>.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Should you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact the organisers at: <u><a href="mailto:idpfun@ngp-net.bio.unipd.it" target="_blank">idpfun@ngp-net.bio.unipd.it</a>.</u><br><br><br>Thank you for your interest,<br>kind regards<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal>-- <o:p></o:p></p><div><div><p class=MsoNormal><b>ELIXIR-IIB Training </b><o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><a href="https://elixir-iib-training.github.io/website/" target="_blank">https://elixir-iib-training.github.io/website/</a><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><img border=0 width=96 height=72 style='width:1.0in;height:.75in' id="_x0000_i1025" src="https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&id=0B0c7_C2GRNsQTEpVMXRDeDBiQnM&revid=0B0c7_C2GRNsQTXBhc2RHMythRmg2ZCtMeWx1NHBrMUZYMzVZPQ"><o:p></o:p></p></div></div></div></div></div></body></html>
