The Membrane Protein Structural Dynamics Consortium
NIGMS (National Institute of General Medical Sciences) announced a ‘glue grant’ to support an interdisciplinary team of scientists who will use state-of-the-art biophysical and computational methods to understand how the structure and movement of membrane proteins determine their functions. NIGMS will fund the project through a glue grant totaling $22.5 million over 5 years. Glue grants are so named because they bring together large, interdisciplinary teams of scientists. This project, called the Membrane Protein Structural Dynamics Consortium, includes investigators from 14 institutions in four different countries.
