The Critical Assessment of Structure Prediction (CASP) brings together a diverse group of scientists, from deep learning experts to NMR specialists, all aimed at developing accurate prediction algorithms that can effectively characterize the structural aspects of biomolecules relevant to their functions. Engagement within the CASP community has traditionally been limited to the prediction season and the conference, with limited discourse in the 1.5 years between CASP seasons. CASP special interest groups (SIGs) were established in 2023 to encourage continuous dialogue within the community. The online seminar series has drawn global participation from across disciplines and career stages. This has facilitated cross-disciplinary discussions fostering collaborations. The archives of these seminars have become a vital learning tool for newcomers to the field, lowering the barrier to entry.
蛋白质结构预测关键评估(CASP)汇聚了一群多元化的科学家,从深度学习专家到核磁共振专家,他们都致力于开发准确的预测算法,以有效表征与生物分子功能相关的结构特征。传统上,CASP社区的参与仅限于预测季和会议期间,在CASP季之间的1.5年里交流有限。2023年成立了CASP特别兴趣小组(SIG),以鼓励社区内的持续对话。在线研讨会系列吸引了来自不同学科和职业阶段的全球参与者。这促进了跨学科讨论,推动了合作。这些研讨会的存档已成为该领域新手的重要学习工具,降低了入门门槛。
