Workshop on NMR Methods for Structural Biology

In conjunction with ISGO-2011, Toronto, Canada

Tuesday, May 10, 2011
University of Toronto, Medical Sciences Building, Kings College Circle
This workshop surveys projects and technologies for structure/function investigations of proteins, developed in (or in collaboration with) structural genomics projects,1 that are ready for widespread use by the wider biological community.
