LU-Fold: first contact request

LU-Fold is run by a small team, and in order to work effectively we need to prioritise projects based on the following criteria:

What is the scientific value of the project?
How will LU-Fold involvement move the project forward?
Do we have the expertise and resources to carry out the task?

Help us to review your project by filling out the form below. We aim to reply to queries within 1-2 weeks.

Your name(required)

Your email(required)

PI name (if different)

PI email (if different)

Phone Number

University, faculty and department(required)

Title of project(required)

Outline of request. Specify your working hypothesis (if applicable).(required)

How will you follow up on the results? How does this fit into your broader research? e.g. do you have a biochemical system set up to validate the structural predictions? Can cellular assays combined with mutational analysis be applied? Maybe you have some structural data already? Do you have the work force needed?(required)

How is this work funded?(required)

What is your previous experience with structural biology? Are you familiar with using structure viewers (e.g. PyMol or Chimera)? If you have little or no experience, please state if you would be interested in attending an introductory workshop on structural bioinformatics.(required)

Please paste relevant UniProt, NCBI accession or sequences of interest, with brief descriptions.

Any other comments, such as urgency of the project?
