Workshop
The European Bioinformatics Institute is presenting a roadshow on the Protein Data Bank right here at ITQB in Oeiras on 5 May, 2011.
The roadshow will be presented by Sameer Velankar, who has extensive experience in PDB annotation, and is currently a scientific officer with responsibility for data content and integration for the PDBe. The presentation is suitable for students, post-docs and scientists who work with structural information in biology.
This workshop will be a combination of presentations and handson tutorials.
The topics to be covered are:
- Introduction to the PDB
- Data validation
- PISA - assembly determination for crystal structures
- PDBeFold - Searching and aligning protein structures by secondary structure matching
- Hands-on Tutorials
If you have anything in particular you want to hear about, that can be covered too, particularly if you let us know in advance.
A wireless internet connection will be provided. Please bring your laptop/notebook for the tutorial session.
Please RSVP before May 2, 2011 to Pedro Matias (matias@itqb.unl.pt) – places are limited.
