SBGrid and University of Otago are hosting a webinar series featuring scientists and software developers talking about what's new in structural biology. Community members can connect via Zoom for these 1-hour sessions including Q&A.
Join us for our weekly webinar series --- Tuesdays at 12pm ET hear from developers and scientists about what's new in structural biology. Community members can connect via Zoom and directly ask questions of presenters. Be sure to subscribe to SBGridTV to receive alerts when we post new recordings and view our full collection of past tutorials. Events are also posted on SBGrid's public calendar.

We've got a couple of operating system alerts for those of you looking to buy new computers or update existing Mac or Linux machines:
SBGrid is not compatible with MacOS 10.15 "Catalina without a work-around for recent filesystem changes", the next version of Apple's MacOS due out in October with significant changes. With Catalina, Apple will enforce strict filesystem controls that will break SBGrid installations. They have also dropped support for 32-bit binaries that many older applications require. We strongly recommend against upgrading to 10.15 on any Mac with SBGrid software. A solution is in the works, but it may take some time before we can fully implement the changes to officially support 10.15. We are also compiling a list of 32-bit software applications that will not …
The evolution of SBGrid tracks with advances in structural biology, and cryo-EM is at the forefront of that change. This article reflects on 3 pivotal papers that describe key advances in cryoEM, from member laboratories and software contributors who were early participants in SBGrid. Read the full story.
