1. Workshop Structural Proteomics of Biological Complexes

2. Questions Why is it timely to study complexes ? What are the most appropriate model organisms ? How to predict relevant complexes ? How to purify complexes ? How to validate their biological functions ? What are the necessary technologies ? What are the realistic goals and timetables ? What are the necessary resources to accomplish the goals ? What are the funding mechanisms for such an initiative ?
