| 1 | Advanced Protein Crystallography | WMBS008-05 |
This course will provide insights on the important fundamentals and practices of protein X-ray crystallography. The aims of the course are to learn how protein crystal structures are determined, and to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary for critically analysing a 3D crystal structure.
Subjects discussed during the course are:
- Protein crystallization and crystal geometry;
- Basic diffraction theory;
- X-ray instrumentation;
- Strategies for phase determination;
- Basics of model building and refinement;
- Structure validation: quality assessment of a protein crystal structure.
Lecture classes are combined with discussion/exercise sessions: students will obtain reading assignments, will have to answer exercises, and are requested to prepare questions and subjects for group discussions. The lecture/discussion/exercise course is complemented with a workshop on the use of the various protein crystallographic computer programs. |

| 18 | Molecular Dynamics | WMBS003-05 |
Together with experiment and theory, computational modeling is one of the three pillars of modern science.In chemistry as well as in life sciences, modeling of the interactions between molecules is essential to understand the emerging behavior of complex systems. In particular the Molecular Dynamics (MD)simulation technique provides a detailed view of the behavior of molecules in space and time, at a resolution that cannot be attained by any single experimental technique.
In a series of lectures, the underlying theory (statistical thermodynamics), the diversity of molecular models (atomistic, coarse-grained), and numerical techniques (integration of Newton's equations of motion) used in MD simulations will be discussed. Applications of the technique will be shown, with a focus on simulation of biomolecular processes.
An important part of the course is hands-on experience using the GROMACS modeling software in a series of tutorials and practicals covering the basics of the techniques and selected applications, e.g. self-assembly of lipids in water or sampling the conformational space of proteins. |

| 41 | Work Placement Business and Policy | WMSE902-40 |
This module is structured as follows:
1. Preparation work placement (at university, 2 weeks, end of December)
2. Work placement part 1, including Writing Plan of Action (at company or organization, 8 weeks)
3. Midterm week (at university, 1 week)
4. Work placement part 2 (at company or organization, 3 months)
5. Conference (at university, 1 week in july)
During the work placement outside the university the student acts as science advisor, who analyses a business or policy problem that needs scientific knowledge to solve it. The student then writes a report with well-argued suggestions to solve the problem. The student implements the skills he/she has learned in the modules Science and Business and Science and Policy. The student gets acquainted with the organization (structure, culture, personality) by performing tasks within the organization. Thus the student gets valuable experience in a multidisciplinary environment.
The work placement starts in January and ends in July. The student must find a work placement by himself, with help of the SBP-staff. This is prepared during the SBP courses. The work placement should have a (beta) science aspect (25-50%) that is on master level and matches the program of the student, a business and/or policy aspect (25-50%) and sufficient prospects for implementation of the advice. Subgrades need to be 5,5 or higher for a pass |
