This two-day workshop will introduce participants to bioinformatics approaches for analysis biological data from resources such as UniProt and the PDBe. Day 1 will cover introductory programming in UNIX and python, sequence similarity searching, and how to navigate and use the protein sequence database UniProt. Day 2 will cover methods to access and retrieve data programmatically, the macromolecular structure database Protein Data Bank in Europe, and end with a talk and panel discussion on artificial intelligence’s role in protein structure prediction.

Activities will include interactive presentations and practical exercises delivered by experienced trainers, which will give trainees hands-on experience.
