PROTEOMIC SCHOOL
CNR-ISPA c/o Bioindustry Park, Colleretto Giacosa (TO)

The school will provide theoretical and practical basis on techniques for protein separations, analysis and identification.


PROTEOMICS
March 12-15, 2007
Beginning: 12 March 9.00 am / Conclusion: 15 March 6.00 pm


Four-days course on the principles of protein separation and fractionation, mass spectrometry and bioinformatics for proteomics. The goal of the school is to teach fundamental principles and novel techniques in order to let the non-expert gain relevant knowledge and expertees. Moreover, participants will be able to interpret the results of mass spectrometry analysis. Applicative examples of proteome studies on microrganisms, vegetal and animal cells, and biological fluids will be carried out. More advanced users will gain additional insight into experimental planning and analytical issues as well as in available techniques.
