Visual and easy-to-use computer help for staying critical in structure-based design

We tend to believe that PDB files are a message from God. — This recent statement from
blogger and Vertex scientist Dr. Derek Lowe ironically captures the danger of getting lost in false assumptions when working with crystal structure data.

We will use free tools and ours in this webinar to give you assistance in checking whether you are still on solid grounds with your work – or not. Be it crystal artifacts recorded, insecure assignments of N vs O vs C, wishful thinking in prior art – or just something unusual which might still be ok – There are very simple-to-use, visual indicators which we can use in our everyday work to alert us when things might get flakey.

Come and join us for minimum input and maximum output.
