| 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. selfassembly of lipids in water or sampling the conformational space of proteins. |

| 31 | Scientific Integrity | WMCH007-00 |
Note: Scientific integrity will be offered in Ia and IIa. You only have to participate this meeting once during your master degree.
This course unit consists of one mandatory lecture. Attendance at this lecture is required to pass the course.
The student will be exposed to various topics on the research misconduct in plagiarism, proper way of allocating credit, whistleblowing. The course will also include case studies for typical examples of research misconduct. The case study will be also extended to two famous real cases in research history. |
