Organization changes of CIISB at the Institute of Biotechnology
The CIISB facilities at IBT have been undergoing the following organizational changes.
A Joint Instruct-iNEXT Course "Integrating X-ray Crystallography, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, Magnetic Resonance Mass Spectrometry and Electron Microscopy" will take place in September 25-30, nearby Lisbon, Potugal.
The main goal is to provide the basic concepts and hands-on applications of Macromolecular Crystallography (MX), Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), Magnetic Resonance Mass Spectrometry (MRMS) and single-particle analysis cryo-Electron Microscopy (EM) in structural biology. Their strengths, limitations and complementarity will be discussed to achieve integrative structural biology approaches to tackle challenging projects. The participants will become acquainted with the technology catalogues provided by Instruct-ERIC and iNEXT-Discovery and will need to select a case study and prepare an access proposal to one of these platforms. The course is aimed primarily at PhD and early post-doc students and limited to 20. Deadline is June 27!
