Protein Production and Purification at UPR-RP

Category: Workshop
Description:

BioXFEL Protein Production and Purification Workshop

The NSF BioXFEL Science and Technology Center will be sponsoring a workshop on March 16th, 2018 for all interested UPR researchers. The full day course will cover the basics of the biochemistry, cloning, expression and purification of proteins. We will discuss the theory behind common techniques as well as provide examples, sample materials, and a handbook of common protocols. This workshop is intended for undergraduates or graduate students that are interested in pursuing a research career in biochemistry or a related field and are currently involved in a research project.

 Tentative Schedule:
