STRUCTURAL BIOLOGY 228

Computational Structural Biology: Protein Simulation, Function and Prediction.

• Greetings!

  Welcome to SBIO228 Computational Structural Biology course

  Please click on the links below to access the course material.
  

• Overview

  SB228 has been completely over-hauled and specially designed for web-based instruction. There will be 10 Lectures each consisting of 6 to 8 Concepts. Each Concept will involve about 10 "Talklets". A Talklet is a slide that includes animation, mouse movements and voice commentary. For an example of a talklet, click on this link.

Office Hours

Dr. Levitt is unavailable for any office hours during the course due to his extremely busy schedule and the online nature of the course. Office hours are available with the TA by appointment, if you happen to live locally; just send us an email. Please also include the topic of any questions that you might want answered so that I can prepare myself ahead of time.
