During the visit to ITQB Nova, Daniela gave a presentation as invited speaker, entitled Design of short peptides and peptide assemblies aided by machine learning and genetic algorithms followed by a great discussion.
Znanstvenice povratnice & mogućnost razvijanja vlastitih istraživačkih vizija na UNIRI
Read about Daniela’s research directions and reasons of her choice to join the University of Rijeka in an article about the “Returning scientists – Brain Gain” to contribute to the regional and Croatian science development, from the local newspaper Novi List.
Soft computing for Sustainability Science
Goran presenting his work on “Soft Computing for Sustainability Science” at @_sustrainable_‘s first teacher training being held at @Radboud_Uni.
HSKIKI conference
Sabino Spečić, Marko Babić, Daniela and Goran participated at the 27th Croatian Meeting of Chemists and Chemical Engineers (27HSKIKI) in Veli Lošinj and presented two posters. Great place to meet national and international chemists and discuss new ideas! Well done Marko and Sabino on getting funding from Sizif for attending the conference.
Designing functional biomolecular assemblies: Beyond biology
Daniela presented a poster at the EMBO Workshop entitled Designing functional biomolecular assemblies: Beyond biology held online, with more than 600 participants from 50 different countries. Daniela also had the honor to chair session 8: Applications: sustainable materials, electronics, biomineralization.
Erik and Marko Njirjak presented at conferences
Great presentations from Marko and Erik (@RITEH) at the 5th edition of “My First Conference” and “4th RSC-BMCS / RSC-CICAG Artificial Intelligence in Chemistry” showing their newest results of the application of ML (Erik) and GA (Marko) for peptide design.
Woman in Supramolecular Chemistry (WISC) Cagliari
Daniela and Patrizia participated to the 1st Women in Supramolecular Chemistry (WISC) workshop: an introduction to Supramolecular Chemistry techniques for early stage career researchers, organized by the University of Cagliari, where Daniela gave a talk and Patrizia presented a poster. This was the first on site conference after the pandemic outburst that we went to and it was a great feeling to discuss science in person again!
Our mini review on peptide-based virus mimetics published in Frontiers in Chemistry
Our mini review on peptide-based virus mimetics entitled Exploiting Peptide Self-Assembly for the Development of Minimalistic Viral Mimetics was published in Frontiers in Chemistry (IF 5.221) as part of the International Women of Supramolecular Chemistry special issue.
Great work by young scientists Patrizia Janković and Iva Šantek.
Poster presentation @Systems Chemistry 21 Virtual Symposium
Patrizia presented a poster entitled Minimalistic peptide-based virus mimeics at the Systems Chemistry 21 Virtual Symposium. We enjoyed valuable discussions at the gathertown platform, making this conference feel like a real (on-site) one.
Presentation at Data Science Conference (DSC) Croatia
Goran presented his work entitled Artificial intelligence based design of short peptides at DSC Croatia 2021, in the context of the impact of AI on business and society. A special thanks to the organizers for the invitation.
