For any scientists working with biomolecules be it, medicinal chemist, structural biologist, biochemist etc. the most valuable source of primary structural information is the Protein Data Bank (PDB). This resource has now been running for 50 years so it very timely to hear about the history of the RCSB PDB and the different components that make up the repository both from a depositor and a user. The second workshop describes some of the recent changes in particular the development of Mol* a 3D viewer capable of rendering from macromolecular assemblies down to atomic details.
