CONFERENCE REPORT: Summarized proceedings of a conference on biological structures and computational methods - London, November 1956

The annual Autumn Conference of the X-ray Analysis Group of the Institute of Physics was held in London on 16 and 17 November, 1956. The three sessions dealt with crystallographic computing for large molecules; globular and fibrous proteins; and viruses and nucleic acids.
