Frontiers of Biophysics
International School of
Biological Magnetic Resonance
Purpose:
This course focuses on recent advances in molecular biophysics and structural biology, as applied to key problems in modern biomedical research. Lectures will cover the principles of structural biology (x-ray crystallography, NMR, Electron microscopy, computation) and biophysics (spectroscopy, kinetics, single-molecule studies), together with recent research results. The long format of the course encourages extensive discussion and life-long collaboration and friendship. Students and postdoctoral researchers from a wide range of backgrounds are encouraged to apply.
