DESCRIPTION:Understanding protein structure is essential for researchers in
  molecular biology\, bioinformatics\, and structural biology\, as it under
 pins insights into function\, interaction\, and disease mechanisms. This t
 wo-day training is designed for early-career researchers\, PhD students\, 
 and postdocs who are new to protein structure analysis. Participants will
  gain hands-on experience with key tools and databases\, including Chimera
 X\, AlphaFoldDB\, MutateX\, and PROSS. They will use these tools to visual
 ize\, explore\, and compare protein structures\, and to design new ones. 
 The course also introduces structure prediction methods using both online 
 platforms (AlphaFold3\, Chai-1) and our local VSC infrastructure (AlphaFol
 d2\, Boltz-1). Furthermore\, we will use AlphaPulldown\, a Python package 
 that streamlines protein-protein interaction screens. On the second day\,
  participants will apply these tools to their research questions\, with gu
 ided support. By the end of the training\, attendees will be equipped to i
 ndependently access\, analyze\, and interpret protein structural data usin
 g state-of-the-art resources.
