I2PC Seminar Series 2024

Instruct Image Processing Center 2024 Seminar Series Banner

The Instruct i2PC from Instruct Spain is organizing the fifth edition of a seminar series on cryoEM and cryoET methods for image processing. We will be gathering expert developers and users so new and existing methods can gain visibility and users can understand the applications and mechanisms of the presented algorithms.

The webinars will be held online without registration, and they are free. You can join the session and launch questions to the speakers through next link:
