Kursusindhold: The course is relevant for biophysically-oriented PhD students within physics, chemistry, biochemistry, pharmacy, agricultural science and biology. The emphasis of the course is on a molecular description of biophysical systems and phenomena. It encompasses experimental methods and theoretical concepts, as well as molecular modelling. The course is cross-disciplinary and cross-institutional and will be given by a series of lecturers who are experts within their subfields of biophysics. The coherence of the course is assured by emphasizing the molecular basis of modern biophysics. The course will take place at different institutions, in order to expose the students to different Danish research groups and their researchers and research facilities. The course will thus give the student a unique opportunity of orienting himself or herself within an active and diverse field of cross-disciplinary science. Topics covered include. Molecular modelling - Structure and dynamics of biomolecules. NMR spectroscopy - Structure and function of proteins in solution. Metal coordination geometry in metalloproteins and its connection to protein structure investigated by Perturbed Angular Correlation of gamma spectroscopy. Ion channels and patch-damping methods. Small angle scattering. Structure of macromolecular aggregates in solution. Self association of proteins investigated by light scattering. Mechanical spectroscopy - Structure and Dynamics of biomolecules. Thermodynamics of biological systems. Structure and dynamics of membrane systems. Proteins and the central nervous system. Single-molecule detection methods.
