Peter J. Peters at EMBO Practical Course, India

October 2022 – Peter J. Peters will be present at the EMBO Practical Course which takes place from December 4-12, 2022 in Pune (India). Peter Peters is CSO at CryoSol-World and distinguished University Professor Nanobiology at Maastricht University (The Netherlands). The EMBO practical courses on cryo-EM image processing have been organized in India since 2018 (alternate years), which has introduced and provided training to PhD students and postdoctoral fellows from all over the globe on the emerging areas of cryo-EM that have revolutionized structural biology. The course will be an essential component of the various activities occurring periodically in capacity building and future developments in cryo-EM. One of the goals is introducing researchers – working in the fields of cell and molecular biology, structure determination of macromolecular complexes, theoretical/computational biology – to the best sample preparation and data collection strategies (including hands-on experience of sample preparation and demonstration of remote data collection). And exposure to the latest scientific advances in the field through research talks from eminent researchers from across the globe. The course is aimed at participants at the levels of students, postdoctoral researchers, and principal investigators from academic institutions or industry, who would like to apply cryo-EM in their scientific research mainly related to biological problems.
