Szeretnénk felhívni a makromolekulákkal kapcsolatos NMR kutatások iránt érdeklődők figyelmét, hogy már megnyílt a jelentejzési lehetőség az idei augusztus 30-tól tartandó EMBO gyakorlati kurzusra. További információ és jelentkezési lehetőség az alábbi leírásban és linken található:
Dear colleagues,
Applications are now open for the EMBO practical course: “Structure, dynamics and function of biological macromolecules by NMR”.
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. The application deadline is the 1st of May 2024.
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.jensen@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
