Capturing Proteins in Motion: Structural Biology of Dynamic and Disordered Proteins
A one-day meeting on how structural biologists study proteins that move, from NMR and ion mobility mass spectrometry to cryo-EM and crystallography. Organised by Prof. Simon Newstead (University of Oxford) and Dr Rachael Wilkinson (University of Leicester).
Registration
Registration is open(opens in a new tab): £80, including refreshments, lunch, and drinks at the evening poster session. Places are limited to 120.
- 20 November 2026, 17:00: abstract deadline for short-talk selection. Short talks are chosen from abstracts received by then; later abstracts might still be presented as posters
- 26 November 2026, 17:00: registration closes
Poster prizes will be awarded at the end of the day.
