Events

The CPD will hold regular networking events to engage the University of Copenhagen and wider national and international communities who are actively working in de novo protein design or interested in applying protein design to their research problems.  The aim is to initiate and foster new research collaborations and programmes.

The CPD will also organise an Annual Conference for its core and associate researchers and partners, and other delegates will be welcome. 

Details for all of these events will be posted here and distributed through the CPD Alert.
