Joint Integrative Computational Biology workshop and CAPRI meeting

Integrative Computational Biology workshop - from Mo. February 12 at 13:30 to Wed. February 14 at 12:30

The first part of the workshop aims at gathering structural biologists studying challenging systems and mathematicians and computer scientists who might have ideas on how to model proteins’ behavior, predict their biophysical properties, and analyze experimental data. One of the goals will be to present the current state-of-the-art in different branches of structural biology and discuss the need for new algorithms with the modeling community. In this context, contributions combining several biophysical techniques and computational methods are very welcome.

8th CAPRI assessment meeting - from Wed. February 14 at 14:00 to Fr. February 16 at 12:30

The second part will be the 8th CAPRI (Critical Assessment of PRediction of Interactions) meeting. We will discuss the recent progress in modeling protein interactions and assemblies.

The scientific committee is composed of Martin Blackledge (IBS Grenoble), Alexandre Bonvin (Utrecht University), Frederic Cazals (Inria Sophia Antipolis), Sergei Grudinin (CNRS Grenoble), Anne Martel (ILL), Sylvain Prevost (ILL), Guy Schoehn (IBS Grenoble), Mark Tully (ESRF), Martin Weik (IBS Grenoble) and Shoshana Wodak (VIB Brussels).

We encourage you to register and submit a talk abstract on the current bottlenecks in your research field and possibly about the integrative methods and their computational aspects. We, of course, expect deep-learning related talks, but we would also like to encourage more classical methods and experimental work. And we would like to avoid, if possible, AF2-based talks, as there are other workshops organized around AF2.

The workshop website : https://workshops.ill.fr/event/392/ (with a shortcut https://workshops.ill.fr/e/icbm2024).

The registration deadline is Jan 15, 2024.

Registration fees are 200 € for both meetings, or 90 € for the ICB workshop alone and 130 € for the CAPRI meeting alone, and include:
• Lunches at the onsite restaurant;
• Coffee breaks;
• Wine & Cheese buffet on Tuesday evening for participants to the ICB workshop;
• Dinner on Thursday for the participants to the CAPRI meeting and tram tickets to reach the restaurant.
Participants can book a room at the EPN-campus Guest-House or at the Marie-Curie Residence, directly from the Registration form (Registration tab). The rate for a single room is 60 EUR per night (breakfast included).
