Registration for CASP13meeting will be held in Mexico, Dec. 1-4, 2018 is now open. CASP (Critical Assessment of Techniques for Protein Structure Prediction) community experiments aim to advance the state of the art in protein structure modeling. About 80 modeling groups from around the world participated in this round and the results will be published in a special issue of the journal PROTEINS. For the previous CASP12 results see: Proteins Vol 86, Issue S1, March 2018. 


The CASP13 round included 12 cryo-EM-derived structure targets. The meeting will be a great opportunity for the cryo-EM community to be exposed to the most advanced methods in protein structure modelling and develop collaborations.  

In the meeting we will:

* Analyze the fascinating results of CASP13 
* Discuss the newest advancements in the field
* Develop collaborations 
* Explore the job market
