Different topics will be presented in lectures. The course is not intended to be merely descriptive or based on particular technique. The goal of this course is to provide for the students, working in the field of biophysics, an updating knowledge and different technical approaches to help them to understand or how to apply this knowledge on different biological/biophysical problems. In addition to the lectures developed in the course, participants will be invited to attend the conferences associated to XLII Annual Meeting of the Argentinean Biophysical Society (SAB), where some of the professors of the course will now give talks with more specific details of the topic discussed in the course (see below the list of participants to attend to the SAB Meeting). The proposed V POSLATAM next to the XLII SAB Congress will provide a relaxed atmosphere encouraging participants to exchange scientific views with different experts in the field of biophysics. For the Latin-American students of biophysics, this will be one of the best opportunities in the region to learn from recognized international professors. Target audience The course is designed to be taken by Ph.D. students of both life sciences and/or physical sciences, interested in the field of biophysics. It was designed to accommodate the different academic backgrounds of the students enrolled in the different programs. Applicants will go through a selection procedure. Maximum number of participants: 30. Lectures are open to all, but pre-registration is required. Some funds will be provided for doctoral students with priority on those who have been particularly adhering students to the Latin American Program in Biophysics of Posgraduate (PosLatam) from the Latin American Federation of Biophysical Society (see: http://www.lafebs.org). Grading There will be a written exam at the end of the course. (take home modality, but worked on independently).
