An Introductory Workshop to the Rosetta Protein Modeling Suite
March 3rd – 5th, 2025
For materials from previous workshops, please see https://meilerlab.org/tutorials/
Workshop Goals
The goal of the workshop is to educate and train academic and industry users on the Rosetta software suite. Rosetta is freely distributed to the academic community by RosettaCommons. Industry usage includes licensing fees that support research and development of Rosetta software.
This is an IN-PERSON workshop. The registration fee is $300 for academic/nonprofit participants and $600 for industry participants. This includes lunch and refreshments, use of computers equipped with Rosetta software and related analysis scripts/tools, and hands on assistance with the tutorials and participants’ own research projects. Transportation and hotel reservation are not covered.
ROSETTA Software
Rosetta is a unified software package for protein structure prediction and functional design. It has been used to predict protein structures with and without the aid of sparse experimental data, perform protein-protein and protein-small molecule docking, design novel proteins and redesign existing proteins for altered function. Rosetta allows for rapid tests of hypotheses in biomedical research which would be impossible or exorbitantly expensive to perform via traditional experimental methods. Thereby, Rosetta methods are becoming increasingly important in the interpretation of biological findings, e.g., from genome projects and in the engineering of therapeutics, probe molecules and model systems in biomedical research (Bender et al. “Protocols for Molecular Modeling with Rosetta3 and RosettaScripts.” Biochemistry 2016.)
The Rosetta Workshop is hosted by the Meiler Lab at Vanderbilt University and is supported in part by the RosettaCommons.
