Trends in Structural Biology
April 28-29, 2011
Brookhaven National Laboratory
Building 510 Large Seminar Room
With the advent of the
NSLS-II, it is a good time to take stock of the current state of the art in
structural biology, and to look forward to what the future will bring. This
meeting is intended to survey current research and develop a perspective on
future themes in structural biology. Discussions will focus both on current
methods and methods currently under development, with the goal of
identifying advances that are most likely to benefit the field.
