We are happy to announce a half-day structural biology symposium at the IECB on the morning of November 7, 2019, made possible through generous funding from the STS department.

The aim of this event is to provide an opportunity for researchers on the Bordeaux campus who are interested in structural biology, biochemistry and the molecular bases of life to meet and interact around some exciting science. A buffet lunch will be provided after the talks.

Please note that registration for this event is free but mandatory, as this is necessary for us to plan for the catering.

We look forward to seeing you on November 7!

Axel Innis, Antoine Loquet & Birgit Habenstein
