The workshop entitled “Integrating Bio-SAXS and High-Performance Computing: Advancements in Structural Biology and Nanoscience” was held in Bari from April 2 to 4.

The event brought together leading experts in Bio-SAXS and high-performance computing, offering a unique platform to explore their integration for innovative applications in structural biology and nanoscience.

The workshop also celebrated the commissioning of state-of-the-art Bio-SAXS instrumentation (for info: cinzia.giannini@cnr.it) and High-Performance Computing (for info: dritan.siliqi@cnr.it) at the CNR Institute of Crystallography (Cnr-Ic), implemented within the ITACA.SB project, which aimed to strengthen Italy’s structural biology capabilities within the Instruct-ERIC infrastructure. It was exciting to see how this advanced technology could address challenges in the pharmaceutical and industrial sectors!
