πŸ˜€Welcome

A brief intro to cryoSTAR

Hi there! πŸ‘‹

This is cryoSTAR, a neural network based framework for recovering conformational heterogenity of protein complexes. By leveraging the structural prior and constraints from a reference pdb model, cryoSTAR can output both the protein structure and density map.
