Dear colleagues,
I would like to inform you about following course:
7th NCCR Practical Course and EMBN Summer School
PRACTICAL COURSE IN 2D MEMBRANE PROTEIN CRYSTALLIZATION AND OBSERVATION
October 20 - 24, 2008, Basel Switzerland
Topics include membrane protein expression, solubilization and
purification | detergent properties and interactions with lipids and
proteins | functional analysis of membrane proteins | 2D-crystallization
of membrane proteins | electron microscopy of 2D crystals | image
processing | application of other visualization techniques: AFM,
IR-spectroscopy, solid-state NMR |
The course is directed primarily to PhD students and postdocs with some
previous experience in the structural biology of membrane proteins or
related fields. The number of participants will be limited to 25.
This course is supported by the European Union Marie Curie Conferences
and Training Courses Program, and the Swiss NCCR Structural Biology.
Junior scientists wishing to attend this course may apply for an EU
Marie Curie Fellowship covering course fees and accommodation costs, and
providing support towards travel costs.
For further information, please see to the course website
