BIOCHEMISTRY

The 35th Steenbock Symposium 'Advances in Biomolecular NMR' will be held June 26-28, 2011 to honor the career of John L. Markley, Steenbock Professor of Biomolecular Structure, Department of Biochemistry, University of Wisconsin-Madison. Through his service to the NMR community and leadership of the National Magnetic Resonance Facility at Madison (NMRFAM), the Biological Magnetic Resonance Data Bank (BMRB) and the Center for Eukaryotic Structural Genomics, Professor Markley has made enormous contributions to the field of biomolecular NMR. 

The Symposium will have presentations from leaders in the field of biological NMR spectroscopy and in various fields of biochemistry who collaborate on protein structure-function studies with Professor Markley and NMRFAM. Topics will include applications of NMR spectroscopy to study the dynamics and structure-function relationships of proteins and nucleic acids, high-throughput structure determination, metabolomics, and natural products. A poster session will provide those attending the symposium an opportunity to present their recent work in biological NMR spectroscopy.
