Das FoldForum geht in die zweite Runde.
On April 24, 2024 at 4 p.m. on the DeepTech Campus
Proteins form the machinery of our body, without which we could not exist. They ensure that we can see, they ward off pathogens and human digestion would be inconceivable without proteins.
But how are proteins actually formed? What do they look like and why, and how can AI in particular help us to better understand their structures and functions?
We will address these and other questions at the FoldForum II on April 24.
- After an introduction to the topics of proteins, their biosynthesis and AI applications for predicting protein structures, Hamburg scientists and founders will discuss the impact of AI-based structure prediction on science, medicine and society.
- The scientific part will be flanked by a presentation by Kilian Guse, CEO of the biotech company GQ Bio Therapeutics, which was founded in 2012.
- The event will conclude with networking, snacks and drinks, during which the evening’s topics will be discussed in greater depth and interested parties will have the opportunity to try out protein structure prediction software live.
The FoldForum is a cooperative event organized by AUFBRUCH.Hamburg and the ARIC. This format is offered as part of the EDIH Hamburg with support from the European Union and the Hamburgische Investitions- und Förderbank.
