Academic and commercial scientists from Instruct Member Countries and organisations can apply for funded access to structural biology technologies. Researchers worldwide can apply for self-funded access - apply to find out more.
Instruct-ERIC provides access to state-of-the-art infrastructure and technology to support research in structural biology. Our aim is to encourage and facilitate the integrative use of technologies and methodologies that are available at Instruct Centres.
Instruct-ERIC is accepting proposals for the 8th Instruct Biennial Structural Biology Conference scheduled for 2028. The host Centre of the Conference should plan for a similar standard and scale as for the 7th biennial conference being hosted in Brussels, Belgium in May 2026.
The workshop is intended for EM facility scientists, managers, and experts from both academia and industry to discuss and share best practices concerning cryo-EM facility operation.
Instruct-ERIC offers PhD Students the opportunity to be part of the Biennial Structural Biology Conference with Student Fellowships, covering economy travel costs and accommodation for 2 nights.
Instruct-ERIC Biennial Conference Registrants are invited to submit an abstract for the poster session. A small number of abstracts will be selected to be presented orally during the conference.
Call to facilitate staff exchanges between consortium partners to enable direct transfer of knowledge and support community building within the consortium.

User guideline-ISIDORe
Introduction: The ISIDORe consortium launched its first calls for proposals to support scientists with an interest in infectious disease. The aim of this call is to offer free of charge transnational access to ISIDORe services for supporting and advancing research on a broad range of pathogens. Within these access calls, Instruct-ERIC offers open access to structural biology infrastructure at our Instruct Centres. Our aim is to facilitate excellent science, and to this end, all applications are submitted for peer review by a panel of experts. Proposal funding is approved based on scientific merit, and reviewers offer constructive advice for improvements where this would benefit the research proposal.
To Request Access, there is a simple online form to create a research proposal. Select the service you would like to access in our catalogue of services and click on the red button "Apply for access" located at the bottom right of your service drop-down. You will be asked to sign in or to create an account in order to proceed with the application.
