"Structural analysis of biological macromolecules using 3D cryo-electron microscopy"

by Jaekyung Hyun (PhD), Nano-Bio Electron Microscopy Research Group

Korea Basic Science Institute (KBSI)

This one-day workshop aims to give attendees the necessary skills to successfully compete for grant funding in Japan. After the workshop, attendees will be able to identify relevant research questions, find the appropriate grants, and write impressive grant applications to help secure funding for their research.

Speaker: Antony Speranza, University of Maryland Date : Tuesday, May 15, 2018 Time : 3:00pm-4:00pm
