About event
The workshop should be attended by structural biologists and biochemists who want to improve their
knowledge of current methods for characterisation of interactions between biomacromolecules and their
ligands including proteins, nucleic acids as well as small molecules. Workshop consists of 2 days of
Lectures given by Biomolecular Interactions and Crystallization Core Facility staff. It is open to anyone upon
registration and is also available for students as credited subject S2004 Methods for characterization of
biomolecular interactions – classical versus modern with the final examination by test on Friday 4th Feb. For
registered students only, the course is complemented by concurrent 3-days practicals (subject S2005).
