The conference will start on the late afternoon (4-5 pm) of Monday, and will finish on Friday morning after breakfast with the usual hike / activity day. Pre-RosettaCon will not take place as a separate meeting as the technical talks, discussions and tutorials will be incorporated into the program.  REGISTRATION Registration fees support conference sustainability; this fee is non-refundable and is one mechanism to reduce last minute cancellations and preserve our community resources. Note that the early registration deadline is June 15, 2024. Registrations after this date will incur a higher registration fee.  Please register at www.rosettacon.org . For the first time, all registrations will go through the same interface.  If you need a letter of invitation to apply...

The Winter RosettaCon organizers want to thank Liberum Bio for sponsoring the experimental validation of the designs that they carried out in 8 days starting from digital sequences! Liberum Bio produces proteins at high yields in cell-free systems at a fraction of the usual cost and time via highly engineered strains and state-of-the art reaction mixtures. At Winter RosettaCon 2024 in Boston, the Rosetta Commons in partnership with Liberum Biotech hosted the inaugural Winter Protein Design Games , focusing on the design of Tobacco Etch Virus (TEV) protease variants. TEV protease is commonly used as a tool for sequence-specific protein cleavage, facilitating the purification of proteins without affinity tags. The competition challenged cross-institutional participating teams to engineer TEV proteases that exhibited enhanced substrate cleavage efficiency over the wild-type enzyme.  The competition was straightforward: design TEV protease variants that outperform the wild type in cl...

Hello friends of Rosetta, We're thrilled to announce an exciting new chapter in our community's journey! After 20 years of wonderful memories at the Sleeping Lady for our annual summer conference, we're moving to a new venue in 2024. As part of our journey of growth and exploration, we are embarking on a new adventure at the Suncadia Resort , outside of Seattle. Our community's evolution is a story of expanding horizons and embracing new possibilities. Suncadia Resort, with its state-of-the-art facilities and size, aligns perfectly with our commitment to growth, accessibility, inclusivity and innovation. This move is a way to test new waters while remaining true to our roots. It's an opportunity to explore new avenues, just as we encourage innovation and new ideas in our field. The Sleeping Lady will always hold a special place in our hearts, and the decision to try Suncadia Resort was made with a spirit of adventure and curiosity.  Join us from Aug 5-9, 2024 at Sun...
