The course format will include morning lectures and late-afternoon/early evening tutorials, and provide ample opportunities for discussions with experts and fellow participants. Participants will be invited to bring own problems for tutorials and/or discussion. The course will be organized as a winter retreat in the Swiss Alps offering a stimulating learning atmosphere with the afternoons available for informal participation in discussions, reading and self-study or recreational activities in the area. Interested candidates are encouraged to apply online on http://www.structuralbiology.uzh.ch/course2010_application.asp. Application deadline will be October 16, 2010. We will be able to accept 20 participants to this course.
