> P-CUBE Workshop on Mammalian Expression Technologies
> Oxford, 3-8 April 2011
>
> The course is designed primarily for structural biologists who have  
> prokaryotic expression experience and would like to use the  
> mammalian expression system for more challenging targets. The goals  
> of the course are to allow participants to have hands-on experience  
> of mammalian cell culture, small and large scale transient gene  
> expression including the use of automated systems, protein  
> purification and crystallisation. The course will be structured so  
> as to interleave lectures and practical sessions. The participants  
> will have the opportunity to closely interact with the tutors and to  
> directly discuss their research projects with the experts in small  
> workgroups.
>
> PARTICIPANTS
> Participants will be asked to submit their CV and a letter of  
> motivation. The course will be limited to 12 participants from  
> European structural biology laboratories.
>
> 	• There is no registration fee for the workshop.
> 	• Accommodation (5 nights max.) during the workshop will be covered.
> 	• Participants are responsible for their own travel costs.
