Training at NBIS

NBIS offers training and workshops within the area of bioinformatics. The training events are primarily for PhD students, postdocs, investigators and other researchers at Swedish universities, but also for industrial researchers in Sweden. There is a small fee for the participants.

We offer both introductory level training events as well as niched and advanced level training events within specialized research and/or technology areas.

Please note that NBIS training events do not provide any formal university credits. The training content is estimated to correspond to a certain number of credits; however, the estimated credits are just guidelines. If formal credits are important, you need to confer with your home department before submitting a course application to establish if the course is valid for formal credits or not.

A primer on cryo-EM data processing using cryoSPARC on BerzeLiUs

2024-04-15 to 2024-04-16 (2 days)
Deadline 2024-04-07
Online
More infoThis course will introduce how to use Berzelius compute cluster for cryo-EM data processing. We will process the beta- galactosidase dataset, known from the Relion tutorials, but applying cryoSPARC on BerzeLiUs, as implemented by the PReSTO team.
