Dear all,
I would like to draw your attention to the following scientific event
in preparation:
Practical Workshop on Characterization of Protein Complexes in
Structural Biology EMBL-Hamburg, 30th June - 3rd July 2009.
The workshop is aimed at advanced graduate students and postdoctoral
fellows interested in expanding their knowledge of state-of-the-art
biophysical and biochemical characterization methods of protein
complexes. The workshop will include hands-on sessions and lectures by
world-leading experts from relevant fields. Topics covered will
include FRET, BIFC, SAXS, ITC, high-throughput crystallization and
mass spectrometry.
The course is supported by the EU funded projects SPINE2-complexes
(http://www.spine2.eu/SPINE2/), 3D Repertoire
(http://www.3drepertoire.org/) and PENELOPE (http://penelope.crg.es/).
The course is open to everyone, however several places have been
reserved for members of the supporting grants. There is no
registration fee and accommodation and subsistence are covered for
accepted applicants. Accommodation will be provided on the basis of
shared double rooms.
The deadline for applications is the 30th of April 2009.
A letter of reference will be required from applicants not associated
with a supporting grant. A selection committee will consider the
applications and the result of the selection procedure will be sent to
applicants by Email within about three weeks of the closing date.
Please note that it is the responsibility of the applicant to ensure
that a letter of reference is uploaded prior to the application
deadline.
