Carlos Oscar S. Sorzano and
@fjchichon.bsky.social
introducing the infrastructure offered @instructi2pc.bsky.social
and CryoEM at CNB-CSIC as part of the extended @instruct-eric.bsky.social centre in Spain
Great to see highlighted the use of ARIA access management system by Instruct Centres

Integrated structural biology at its best with fantastic talks in cryo-EM, NMR, and X-ray techniques
Also integration with other Instruct Centres, in this case Kay Grünewald Instruct-DE @cssbhamburg.bsky.social 'Conformational flexibility and molecular plasticity in herpesvirus entry and egress'
January 29, 2026 at 4:48 PM
The scientific part of the event starts with a talk by @sergiocruzleon.bsky.social on bridging in-situ cry-ET and multi scale simulations

Enjoying the useful and informative discussions at the

Great new format for the meeting where we discuss the issues of relevance to the ERICs more than typical presentations.
So far we cover: ERIC regulation, funding for access, international reach, impact of infrastructures and more.
@instruct-eric.bsky.social has contributed to all of these issues
In the first practical session of the Annual Meeting, Giuseppe Cimo (Joint Institute for VLBI ERIC) guided the audience in identifying the main challenges of the ERIC Regulation in distributed RIs 💫 Lots of comments and important insights were gained! 👏
November 12, 2025 at 1:44 PM
And we get started with Giuseppe Cimo from JIVE presenting the work the ERIC Forum has been doing to look in how to improve or implement the ERIC regulation
In the case of internationalisation the issues were diagnosed within the work published last year
