| 227-0396-00L | CIMST Interdisciplinary Summer School on Bio-Medical Imaging  | 3 KP | 6G | S. Kozerke, S. M. Ametamey, G. Csúcs, T. Ishikawa, P. Koumoutsakos, R. Müller, R. Schibli, M. Stampanoni, G. Székely, R. A. Wepf | |
| Kurzbeschreibung | Two-week summer school organized by CIMST (Center for Imaging Science and Technology, University and ETH Zurich) on biological and medical imaging. The course covers X-ray imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, nuclear imaging, ultrasound imaging, infrared and optical microscopy, electron microscopy, image processing and analysis. | ||||
| Lernziel | Students understand basic concepts and implementations of biological and medical imaging. Based on relative advantages and limitations of each method they can identify preferred procedures and applications. Common foundations and conceptual differences of the methods can be explained. | ||||
| Inhalt | Two-week summer school organized by CIMST (Center for Imaging Science and Technology, University and ETH Zurich) on biological and medical imaging. The course covers concepts and implementations of X-ray imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, nuclear imaging, ultrasound imaging, infrared and optical microscopy and electron microscopy. Multi-modal and multi-scale imaging and supporting technologies such as image analysis and modeling are discussed. Dedicated modules for physical and life scientists taking into account the various backgrounds are offered. | ||||
| Skript | Hand-outs, Web links | ||||
| Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | The school admits 50 MSc or PhD students with backgrounds in biology, chemistry, mathematics, physics, computer science or engineering based on a selection process. To apply a curriculum vitae and an application letter need to be submitted. Further information can be found at: www.cimst.ethz.ch/education/summer_school. | ||||
| 551-1402-00L | Biophysics and Macromolecular Mechanisms | 4 KP | 2V | R. Glockshuber, T. Ishikawa, B. Schuler, D. Veprintsev, V. Vogel, E. Weber-Ban | |
| Kurzbeschreibung | The course is focussed on biophysical methods for characterising conformational transitions and reaction mechanisms of proteins and biological mecromolecules, with focus on methods that have not been covered in the Biology Bachelor Curriculum. | ||||
| Lernziel | The goal of the course is to give the students a broad overview on biopyhsical techniques available for studying conformational transitions and complex reaction mechanisms of biological macromolecules. The course is particularly suited for students enrolled in the Majors "Structural Biology and Biophysics", "Biochemistry" and "Chemical Biology" of the Biology MSc curriculum, as well as for MSc students of Chemistry and Interdisciplinary Natural Sciences". | ||||
| Inhalt | The biophysical methods covered in the course include advanced reaction kinetics, methods for the thermodynamic and kinetic analysis of protein-ligand interactions, classical and dynamic light scattering, analytical ultracentrifugation, spectroscopic techniques such as fluorescence anisotropy, fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) and single molecule fluorescence spectrosopy, modern electron microscopy techniques, atomic force microscopy, and isothermal and differential scanning calorimetry. | ||||
| Skript | Course material from the individual lecturers wil be made available at the sharepoint website https://team.biol.ethz.ch/e-learn/551-1402-00L | ||||
| Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | Finished BSc curriculum in Biology, Chemistry or Interdisciplinary Natural Sciences. The course is also adequate for doctoral students with research projects in structural biology, biophysics, biochemistry and chemical biology. | ||||
| 551-1618-00L | Correlative Structural Biology with a Main Focus on Electron Microscopy | 4 KP | 2V | H. Gross, G. Csúcs, T. Ishikawa, R. A. Wepf | |
| Kurzbeschreibung | During this course you will learn the imaging techniques and sample preparation methods used in life science to investigate cellular and macromolecular structures isolated or in their natural context | ||||
| Lernziel | - introduction to high resolution light and electron microscopy - specimen preparation with a special focus on life like sample preparation by cryo methods (Cryo-EM) - 3D Image processing (basics) - correlation of LM, EM structure data with NMR and X-ray structure research and discussion of advantage and disadvantage, strength and weaknesses of these methods | ||||
