Hi Harry, Are you advertising our CCP4 Summer School coming up in June at APS? If not, then I'll shamelessly plug in: http://www.ccp4.ac.uk/schools/APS-school/
And if one visits previous years' school links, there are plenty of lectures posted. Thanks, N. Ruslan Sanishvili (Nukri), Ph.D. GM/CA-CAT Biosciences Division, ANL 9700 S.

Or you could ask someone who has taught on (or attended) one of these schools if you could see their lecture slides and notes...
