Second Announcement [ogo.png] NETHERLANDS SOCIETY ON BIOMOLECULAR MODELLING Fall meeting 3D Protein Structures: what sequences cannot tell you November 16th 2018 Venue: Boothzaal, University Library De Uithof, Utrecht The Netherlands Society on Biomolecular Modelling (NSBM) is an independent society that brings people together in The Netherlands and beyond, that work on three dimensional structures of biomolecules and biomolecular simulations. This is a first announcement of our Fall meeting to which you are cordially invited. During the meeting, the floor will be given to students, PhD students, post-docs and a number of invited guest speakers who study protein structure and/or structural bioinformatics or related topics.
