Dear colleagues,

Applications are open for the EMBO practical course: “Structure, dynamics and 
function of biological macromolecules by NMR”. 
The application deadline is the 1st of May 2024. 

The course will be held from Friday the 30th of August until Friday the 6th of 
September 2024 at the Institute of Structural Biology on the EPN science campus 
in Grenoble. Please see:

https://meetings.embo.org/event/24-nmr

for further information and for submitting your application. 

Applicants need to provide a motivation letter, description of research 
interests, publication list (if applicable), CV and poster abstract. A letter 
of recommendation from the supervisor or head of laboratory should be sent to 
malene.jen...@ibs.fr <mailto:malene.jen...@ibs.fr> before the deadline. 
Incomplete applications will not be considered. 

The intention of the course is to provide practical training in important 
aspects of structural and dynamical analysis by NMR. The emphasis will be on 
setting up experiments on the spectrometer (optimising parameters, pulse 
programs), on processing and analysing the NMR data and on structure 
calculations in a hands-on fashion. It is impossible to also teach all the 
necessary theoretical background of modern NMR experiments in a few days. 
Therefore, the course is aimed at PhD students and postdocs who have some 
working knowledge of NMR theory and who understand the basic principles of NMR 
pulse sequences. Candidates should have a knowledge of NMR theory at the level 
of the book “Protein NMR Spectroscopy" by Cavanagh et al or similar.  

Topics to be covered:

Pulse sequences for assignment and structural information: theory, practical 
set-up and use
Multidimensional data processing
Resonance assignment
Structure calculation and evaluation
Relaxation: theory, experiments, data analysis
Residual dipolar couplings: theory, experiments, data analysis
Paramagnetic NMR
NMR of nucleic acids
In-cell NMR

Please forward this information to any students or postdocs who might be 
interested in the course.

Sincerely yours,

Malene Jensen
