Understanding Protein Structure Through Context 

– Cryo-Electron Microscopy and Integrated Techniques –
背景から理解するたんぱく質構造 -クライオ電子顕微鏡と統合的解析技術-

Advances in cryo-electron microscopy are transforming our understanding of biological systems at molecular resolution. This symposium will bring together researchers from diverse disciplines to discuss emerging technologies, scientific discoveries, and future directions in structural biology. Through interdisciplinary exchange and collaboration, the symposium aims to create new opportunities for next-generation structural biology.
