Community activities are organised based on the four major deliverables described in the Australian Structural Biology Deep-Learning Infrastructure Roadmap.
1. Community space: deliverable 1 is an Australian Structural Biology community space (e.g. this website) that is capable of fostering collaboration and knowledge sharing.
2. Training program: deliverable 2 is a computational structural biology training program, developed in conjunction with the community.
3. Shared platform(s): deliverable 3 is a shared platform, or platforms, for computational structural biology.
4. Global connections: deliverable 4 is the alignment, adoption and contribution to global best-practice efforts.
