The protein Production and Structure core facility (PTPSP) is a centralized platform at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL, Lausanne) managed by Dr. Florence Pojer. It aims to provide expertise at every stage of the macromolecular structure determination pipeline. Users are scientists from laboratories at EPFL and University of Lausanne, with diverse topics, ranging from novel structures to structure-based drug design projects. Each project is evaluated on its feasibility before being incorporated in the crystallization pipeline. PTPSP goal is to create a dynamic and efficient platform to move projects forward, and collecting data at ESRF is therefore essential to our community. For many years, PTPSP has long-term proposals at SLS (PSI, Switzerland), however with SLS closing mid-2023 for an upgrade, PTPSP would need beamtime at ESRF during that period
