The Minnesota NMR Center will offer a week-long 'hands-on' NMR course
directed at postdoctoral and graduate students interested in protein
structure determination by NMR spectroscopy.
This course will include hands-on sections on the experimental setup and
optimization of pulse sequences with the center’s spectrometers, as well as
an introduction to spectra interpretation and structure calculation (pulse
sequence codes and scripts for structure calculation will be provided).
Significant emphasis will be given to the study and interpretation of
ligand binding and drug discovery by NMR. Participants will also have a
unique opportunity to network with invited speakers and NMR Center staff
members. TopSpin/VNMRJ and nmrPipe/Sparky software will be utilized.
Classes and hands-on NMR sections will be held at the Minnesota NMR Center,
which is equipped with two 600, two 700, one 850, and one 900 MHz Bruker
spectrometers with cryogenic probes.
Applications for the hands-on course are due by April 30, 2017. A discount
of $100 will be applied if the registration is filed before April 1, 2017.
Student-style housing is available for an additional cost.
