Radka Svobodová from the Structural Bioinformatics group organized a workshop, Software Tools for Structural Bioinformatics, on 12-14 February. The event aimed to familiarize participants with the key steps in the process of biomolecular structure analysis and to equip them with practical skills in their processing.
The workshop focused on the processes of searching, visualization and validation of biomolecular structures, as well as the analysis of biologically relevant ligands. Participants had the opportunity to work with many specialized tools for structural data analysis, such as Mol*, 2DProts, ACC2, αCharges, MOLEonline, ChannelsDB and others, which they tried out in hands-on exercises.
We thank all attendees for their active participation and look forward to seeing each other at similar events in the future.
A Structural Bioinformatics research group member, Ondřej Schindler, together with Radka Svobodová, was awarded the prestigious MUNI Scientist Award for outstanding scientific contribution.
Masaryk University has accredited a new study programme Bioinformatics in cooperation between the Faculty of Informatics and the Faculty of Science.
