An Afternoon of Algorithmic Protein Folding
On June 19th 2019 from 13:00 till 17:00 (max) we'll be organising a thematic afternoon of algorithmic protein folding. We'll be having some speakers, some student projects and a really nice [competition] by Bas Terwijn, lecturer in Heuristics. If you want to join us, or maybe even contribute,
please register so we can arrange for enough space. If you're not sure, just put "not sure" in the comment box.

Competition
Are you a good protein folder? Take part in our competition! Heuristics teacher Bas Terwijn has made a set of 26 proteins, ranging from 14 to 200 amino acids in various dimensionalities. The proteins, and some python source code for objective values and visualization, come in a [downloadable package].
Submissions can be done [here].
For questions contact Bas Terwijn.
Protein Folding in Minor Programmeren
The idea for a meetup stems from the course of Heuristics in the Minor Programming here at UvA. One of the cases involves developing algorithms for folding proteins. Click the image (warning: Dutch).
