	2025 Calendar: The Structural Biology of Nutrition The food that we eat contains four major classes of molecules–proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates–as well as many micronutrients like vitamins and minerals. Our bodies contain thousands of different proteins that interact with and utilize these nutrients to build up our bodies and provide the energy we need to live.
	Molecular Landscapes for 2023 The 2023 Calendar Features twelve images from the PDB-101 David Goodsell SciArt gallery.
	2024 Calendar: Peak Performance Athletes require bodies that perform best, all the way from molecules to muscles. By understanding the structure and function of biomolecules, athletes can ensure that they are performing at their peak. These include molecules that power and control muscle action, molecules that turn food into energy, essential dietary molecules that are required for health, and molecules that protect our bodies under extreme stress and exertion. This knowledge also informs the ways that all of us can live our best lives, at all stages of our lives.
	2022 Calendar: Revolutionizing structural biology with 3DEM This calendar features twelve molecular assemblies studied by 3DEM. They further our understanding of biology and serve as a gateway to advances in technology and medicine.

	2019 Calendar: What is a Protein? Learn about protein structure and function with this 2019 calendar and related materials.
	2018 Calendar: Mechanisms of Antimicrobial Resistance Antibiotics have saved countless lives, but pathogens are quickly finding ways to survive antibiotic treatment. Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are predicted to become the leading cause of death worldwide, with an expected death rate of 10 million people annually by 2050. They take many approaches: pumping antibiotics out of their cells, altering the molecular machinery that the antibiotics target, and attacking the antibiotics directly. Atomic structures publicly available in the PDB are revealing the details of drug resistance and providing new ways to combat it.
