This year’s conference focuses on major advancements in structural biology with a specific emphasis on innovations in cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM). It brings together experts in the field  under one roof in Houston to discuss the current state of the art in cryo-EM, highlighting breakthroughs in structural biology research and its impact on drug discovery.  The conference and poster session will also highlight the outstanding research being done by predoctoral and postdoctoral trainees in the eight inter-institutional training programs administered  by the GCC/Keck Center.
