Abstract
Data processing and data management services for structural biology. Enhancements to existing web services for structure solution and analysis. New pipelines to link these services into more complex higher-level workflows. New data management facilities. Making the benefits of European e-Infrastructures more accessible to structural biologists.
The West-Life project (https://about.west-life.eu/) is a Horizon 2020 project funded by the European Commission to provide data processing and data management services for the international community of structural biologists, and in particular to support integrative experimental approaches within the field of structural biology. It has developed enhancements to existing web services for structure solution and analysis, created new pipelines to link these services into more complex higher-level workflows, and added new data management facilities. Through this work it has striven to make the benefits of European e-Infrastructures more accessible to life-science researchers in general and structural biologists in particular.
