3D-Bioinformatics 2020 Annual Workshop
ELIXIR Community in Structural Bioinformatics – 3DBioInfo
ELIXIR Communities enable the participation of communities of practice in different areas of the life sciences in the activities of ELIXIR, which underpin the evolution of a data, tools, interoperability, compute and training infrastructure for European life science informatics (see www.elixir-europe.org/use-cases ).
Structural bioinformatics has a broad impact across the life sciences and provides tools to archive, visualise, analyse, annotate, and predict molecular structures.
Structural bioinformatics is traditionally very strong in Europe offering many software tools, methodologies, and databases, as well as community-wide prediction challenges. Its applications cover research activities from structural biology to drug discovery and personalised medicine that are all well represented within the national ELIXIR nodes.
The meeting will be virtual this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Submission of abstracts for posters is encouraged, as researchers with accepted posters will be offered the opportunity to pre-record short talks for their poster.
Authors of selected poster talks will be invited to give longer talks during the main meeting sessions.

Overview of Programme
The meeting will start with a brief overview of the aims of the 3DBioInfo Community. This will be followed by Breakout sessions for each of the major 3D-BioInfo Activities described below. These breakout sessions will be held sequentially, allowing participants to attend any number of sessions they want.
Next will come a Plenary session, at which coordinators of the different Activities will present their reports.
All the sessions and talks will be recorded, with the recordings made available at later dates.
Start date: Tuesday 24 November 2020
