NESS was started by myself as a cheap & cheerful one-day structural biology symposium / social event, to bring together local talent & expertise in the North East area. A different topic in structural biology is selected for each year’s symposium. Suggestions for topics and for improving the symposium are always welcome (andrei@uconn.edu).
The Site for the NESS conference is here

Sadly, NESS seems to have ended because of COVID-19. Thank you to all who participated! Maybe it will come back someday.
