COURSES@CRG: Advanced Proteomics Course for Molecular Biologists and Clinicians

The “Advanced proteomics course for molecular biologist and clinicians” targets international postdocs and students and aims to provide an extensive update on the most advanced proteomics techniques and applications. The target audience includes PhD students and post-docs with some prior knowledge in mass spectrometry who think proteomics can have an impact on their own research projects. The course combines lectures with hands-on sessions in the laboratory and computational practicals to consolidate the concepts introduced during the theoretical sessions.
