About NordStruct
NordStruct is a network for structural biology infrastructure in the Nordic region. It brings together universities and research facilities across Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden to strengthen collaboration, improve access to advanced facilities, and support training in structural biology.
Through activities such as mobility grants, collaboration grants, advanced PhD training, topical meetings, and a network for facility managers, NordStruct supports researchers at all career stages and helps develop the competencies needed to conduct cutting edge structural biology research. By connecting infrastructures, expertise, and researchers, NordStruct aims to strengthen the international competitiveness of Nordic structural biology and establish the region as a global leader in the field.
NordStruct Partner Universities
NordStruct brings together 29 network partner organizations across the Nordic countries, including universities and large-scale research infrastructures. This extensive network ensures broad access to expertise, facilities, and training opportunities in structural biology. The consortium partners represent each Nordic country and carry the overall responsibility for the project. The Associated Partners include a wide range of network partner universities across the Nordic region. Together, these partners represent a large and diverse community of researchers and facilities dedicated to advancing structural biology across the Nordic countries.
