| Life Sciences Program 2002: |
|
| The Life Sciences Program 2002 will focus on structure
determination methods in macromolecular crystallography from crystal
screening to structure interpretation. A group of outstanding lecturers
will teach approximately 40 students in an intensive training program
throughout the week. Particular attention will be given to hands-on
problems in current structural biology research. Students should prepare
a one-page transparency describing their scientific problem for presentation
to all of the participants during a dedicated session. |
|
| The program for Life Sciences Course includes a combined program with the Physical Sciences Course for Monday morning and all day Friday. The remaining formal Physical and Life Sciences sessions will be held in parallel. All students and lecturers will meet for joint breakfast, lunch and dinner sessions. The Life Sciences program, including the joint sessions, is outlined below. | |
