This lecture course targets physics students and students of interdisciplinary sciences (major physics) for their education in biophysics. In this course the basics of molecular biology are presented bearing in mind the special interests of the physics students.

In this seminar series, topics relevant to solution state NMR with biological macromolecules are treated. Each semester a different aspect of biomolecular NMR is discussed in depth. The course is tailored to advanced students (PhD students and postdocs) who have experience with applications of NMR spectroscopy. Each participant presents a selected topic in form of a seminar.

The course provides an overview of experimental methods for studying function and structure of macromolecules at atomic resolution in solution. The two main methods used are Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectroscopy.

In this block course, students actively participate in ongoing research projects in the research groups of Profs. Allain, Wüthrich and Dr. Gossert. The students will be tutored in their experimental work by experienced postdoc students. In addition, the course includes specific lectures that provide the theoretical background for the experimental work, as well as exercises and literature work.
