Multidimensional NMR Spectroscopy for Structural Studies of Biomolecules

The objective of the course is to introduce methods used in NMR spectroscopy for structure determination of biomolecules and for studying protein-ligand interactions. The course will cover principles and application of two- and three-dimensional NMR experiments along with different isotope labelling schemes that are routinely used for protein structure determination.

INTENDED AUDIENCE:
M. Sc/Ph. D students, Scientists from Pharma/Biotech Companies
