MMTSB Workshop on Protein Structure Prediction and Multi-Scale Modeling

Workshop Agenda

Lectures and hands on tutorials from MMTSB Tool Set Workshop held June 2-5, 2003 in Pittsburgh, PA at the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center. The workshop was jointly sponsored by the MMTSB and PSC Biomedical Research Resources.

From this site you can download the lectures in pdf format (follow the links below) or explore tutorial examples of applications of the MMTSB Tool Set to problems of protein structure modeling, structure prediction and more general aspects of molecular simulation.
