Jointly organized conference by the Swiss, Austrian and German Societies for Electron Microscopy.

The conference was launched in 2018 to bring the industry-based structural biology community together for two days of presentations and networking. This is a great place for industrial structural biologists, as well as those who are industry-curious.

The conference will feature keynote presentations by:

* Dr. Stephen K. Burley, Director RCSB Protein Data Bank and Rutgers University Professor

* Dr. James Fraser, Professor and Chair Department of Bioengineering and Therapeutics Sciences at UCSF

* Dr. Stephen Harrison, Professor Harvard Medical School/Investigator Howard Hughes Medical Institute

* Dr. Mark Murcko, Founding CSO/Board Member at Dewpoint Therapeutics and Relay Therapeutics

 

Scientific sessions will cover the following topics:

* Structural Biology of Targeted Protein Degradation: Glues, TCs & DUBs

* Developing Fragments to Drugs: Challenges & Victories

* Molecular Dynamics and Allostery - Bridging Experimental and Computational Drug Discovery

* Membrane Protein Structure Guided Design

* CryoEM Synergies with Molecular Modeling and Computational Models

* Biologics (Antibody Design & ADCs)

* AI/ML in Structural Biology and Drug Discovery

* Hot Topics (SBDD, Kinases, RNA)

• Studies of dynamic systems, 4D structural biology
• Electron and X-ray tomography, and correlative approaches
• Microcrystal Electron Diffraction of Proteins & small molecules
• Neutron Diffraction and Scattering for biological macromolecules
• From structure-based drug discovery to clinical trials
• Integrative approaches in Structural biology
• AI in structural biology, software and databases
• EPN research institutions and facilities

The Polish Crystallographic Meeting, Scientific Workshop and Session of the Young Crystallographers Sections of PCrA will be held at the Institute of Low Temperature and Structure Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences, ul. Okólna 2 in Wrocław.

The Workshop is devoted to selected issues and problems of modern crystallography.

The Scientific Session of the Young Crystallographers Section of PCrAÂ is a forum for exchanging experiences addressed primarily to students, PhD students and young doctors (maximum 5 years after defense).

The topics of the Meeting include basic and applied research on the ideal and real structure of crystals carried out with the use of X-ray radiation obtained both with traditional methods and in synchrotrons, research with the use of neutrons and electrons, problems of symmetry, phase transformations and crystal growth, new research and computational methods and all other aspects of crystallography. The conference is an annual meeting place and a forum for exchanging ideas of all Polish crystallographers.

During the inauguration of the 66th Polish Crystallography Meeting, the winners of the 6th National Crystallography Olympiad will be decorated: http://olimpiadakrystalograficzna.pl.

The Fourth Pan-African Conference on Crystallography (PCCr4), to be held in Algiers, Algeria, in 2025, represents a key event for crystallography in Africa. Building on previous conferences in Cameroon (2016), Ghana, and Kenya (2023), PCCr4 will bring together researchers, scientists, and students from across the continent and beyond to share knowledge, discuss recent advancements, and explore diverse applications of crystallography and structural science. You can find more information here.

Following the success of the previous tri-annual GOLD conferences on the applications of gold in high-technology (Québec 2022; Paris 2018; Cardiff 2015), the GOLD 2025 conference (10th ) will be held on May 11-14, 2025, in San Sebastian, Spain. The event will take place at the Kursaal Convention Center, a splendid venue by the seaside.
