Have you created a customized solution for research? Software? A gadget? A life-changing protocol? Your creation might be useful for someone else! Come and share it at the 2nd “Cool Tools for Science” meeting, a great chance to show and exchange a new dimension of your work: user innovation.  The meeting will be held online on the 2th and 13th May 2021.

The Lisbon Biophysics Networking Meeting "From Protein Dynamics to Membrane Biophysics", which brings together the Portuguese Biophysical community working in the field of Protein Structural Biology and Membrane Biophysics, will be held at Instituto Superior Técnico, Lisbon, October 12th 2018. The event is designed to promote scientific networking among distinct groups in the two research areas and to encourage future productive collaborations in the lipid-protein interaction field. The registration and abstract submission are free of charge for all attendees. Click on title to learn more.

Ana Melo gave an invited talk during the XVII Meeting of the Portuguese Society for Neuroscience, at Coimbra, 1 - 3 December, 2021. She presented recent work focused on characterizing the distinct conformational dynamics of the flanking polyQ regions in the membrane-bound state of Huntington exon 1, and its role in Huntington´s disease. Her presentation was in the framework of the SPB Symposium: “A biophysical perspective on degenerative diseases: protein assembly and phase separation”, together with Sandra Macedo Ribeiro (IBMC- i3S) and Salvador Ventura (IBB-Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona).

The IV Annual Meeting of the Biological Engineering Alumni Network will take place at Técnico on the 26th October. This year the event is focused on Circular Economy. Join us for one inspiring day, full of sharing and networking.
