We're up and running on the last day of the Spring Symposium. More great science after a lively dinner last night.

Agnel has kicked off the 2026 Spring Symposium with some recent highlights from CCP-EM. Virtual attendance is available freely via Zoom ukri.zoom.us/j/95963440589

We are pleased to announce Doppio version 1.4! Available here www.ccpem.ac.uk/software/dow...

Great study of a flexible protein-DNA complex, with contributions from CCP-EM's Agnel.
