Invitation to present your structural biology research
The Australian Structural Biology Computing Community (ASBC) is a group for anyone who uses computing for structural biology research in Australia. They have a newsletter you can subscribe to, a website full of resources, and they meet online at quarterly meetings.
Their community talk series invites speakers from across the international structural biology community to present their work. Meetings in 2026 have featured:
Biswa Prasanna Mishra (Ve lab - Griffith University) - 11th March
Cameron Gilchrist (Steinegger lab - Korea Basic Science Institute Ochang-center) - 20th May
Roland Dunbrack (Dunbrack lab - Fox Chase Cancer Center) - 29th July
Tom Goddard (ChimeraX - UCSF) - 16th September
To wrap up the year, there is an invitation to Australian EMCR researchers in structural biology computing to share their work at a special edition of the ASBC community meeting on 4 Nov 2026. Whether you're in the middle of a project, have completed a project, or published a paper, you are invited to give a 15 minute talk.
Example projects could use methods related to structure prediction, structure search, protein design, functional annotation, molecular dynamics, CryoEM or other related areas. It is a great opportunity for EMCRs to promote their work with the national community and network with potential collaborators. Four talks will be selected via an informal and friendly application process.
Please send your talk title and a ~250 word abstract to asbc@unsw.edu.au by 31 Aug 2026 to be considered.
