At the heart of biology lies a simple but powerful rule: structure determines function. Today, the field of structural biology is experiencing a revolution. With the help of groundbreaking AI tools like AlphaFold, our ability to decode the building blocks of life has never been faster or more exciting to teach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To help educators bring this cutting-edge science to their students, the EMBL Science Education and Public Engagement team, in partnership with Merck, is thrilled to announce our latest train-the-trainer course: “Protein Folding & AI.”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Taking place from 1 to 3 March 2027 at EMBL Heidelberg<\/strong>, this free, 2.5-day immersive experience is designed for European secondary school STEM teachers and informal educators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Participants will step away from dry textbooks and get hands-on with a brand-new EMBL teaching resource that blends tactile, game-based, and computer-based activities. Alongside exploring EMBL\u2019s world-class facilities and hearing directly from research scientists, attendees will gain the skills and materials to train their peers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Graduates of the course will officially become EMBL Teacher Ambassadors<\/strong>, fully equipped to deliver local “EMBLconnect” workshops in their native languages and empower their local teaching communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The course is completely free of charge, with complimentary accommodation and limited travel bursaries available for eligible participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ready to decode the building blocks of life and inspire the next generation of scientists?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
