ITQB NOVA (Universidade Nova de Lisboa), EvaMobs’ coordinator, will host European RosettaCon 2026!

Theme: “Crossing Boundaries with Protein Design”
📅 28–30 Oct 2026 | 📍 Lisbon

Registration & abstracts open in March.

#RosettaCon #ProteinDesign @itqbnova.bsky.social

🟢During #WorldImmunizationWeek, APPEAL joins #AVITHRAPID in highlighting that pandemic preparedness needs both strong vaccination strategies and rapid-response antivirals.
Together with our #HorizonEU projects #AVITHRAPID, #PANVIPREP, #EvaMobs and #e-FabRIC, we work towards a more resilient EU.

💡 Preparing for future health crises is not only a scientific challenge, but also a societal one. EvaMobs members contributed to the #BioPlaTTAR interactive public session on responsible leadership in future health crises.

Three years into #EvaMobs, we met again in Madrid 🇪🇸

From designing to testing thousands of monobodies, nanobodies, and miniproteins, we’re learning what works and narrowing down what could make a real impact.🔍

Next step: move successful candidates to pre-clinical testing!🚀

🌍 This week, EvaMobs co-coordinator Diana Lousa joined the IPOPI Global Stakeholders' Summit 2026, where patients, researchers and clinicians came together to discuss current challenges and new approaches to antiviral diseases and immunodeficiencies.

👉This week we are hosting the European consortium that participate in the EvaMobs Project. 

👥With 11 partners, their aim is to use an innovative tool for the rapid and efficient development of new #antivirals, taking by using evolvable monobodies, or “Mobs” for short.

How does a drug safely reach patients? 💊

At Career Week in Osijek, EvaMobs researcher Suzana Žunec (IMI) shared the journey from molecule discovery to preclinical safety testing — and IMI’s role in validating antivirals within the EvaMobs platform.

🌟 EvaMobs joined the 2nd Peptides in Biology & Materials meeting at Sofia University 🇧🇬

The event focused on linking computational peptide research with experimental applications. Diana Lousa presented how peptides can help tackle viral pandemics, from entry mechanisms to therapeutic strategies. ✨
