NEW Advanced Certificate in
Protein Crystallography on the Web '97/'98
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Department of Crystallography, Birkbeck College, University of London
Web site: http://px.cryst.bbk.ac.uk/
We are pleased to announce that we are now accepting registrations
for this course. Protein crystallography is now a very
multidisciplinary technique which has overlap with biochemistry,
molecular biology, bioinformatics, biophysics and organic chemistry.
The web course is therefore ideally suited for students of these
disciplines who want to know in more detail (mainly non-mathematical)
how structures are determined, how the quality of coordinates should
be judged, and how crystallographic papers should be assessed. It
will also appeal to those who envisage a further career in this
exciting and rapidly expanding field, especially also in the
pharmaceutical industry.
This new course is delivered over the internet and makes use of
innovative technologies including use of BioMOO for on-line
tutorials, email discussion lists, and interactive course material.

Please send any queries / requests for application forms to Claire
Burton (c.burton at mail.cryst.bbk.ac.uk).
The fee for students within the European Union is 260 pounds sterling,
for non-EEA students the cost is 575 pounds sterling. Fee payments for
overseas students should be made by cheque in pounds sterling drawn on
a British bank.
