A project in structural biology?

3 self-training steps to access the basics

How do I proceed?

1

Choose your course

You can start with fundamentals to acquire a theoretical background, with prerequisites for preparing your samples, or with one or more methods.

2

Test your knowledge

Before accessing each course, you will have to answer a few questions in the form of a quiz to assess your level of knowledge associated with each video.

3

Fill your gaps

Each time you make one or more mistakes in the quiz, we recommend that you watch the video(s) associated with the lesson.

Why this website


Structural biology requires skills in biology, biochemistry, chemistry, crystallography, NMR, cryo-electron microscopy, physics and computer science. When we start in this field, we don’t know what we know and what we don’t know. That’s why we offer you à la carte training. Before each course, you will take a quiz to assess your knowledge. Depending on your score, you’ll decide whether to watch the corresponding video or move on to the next one.
Our aim is to enable you to acquire the basic knowledge you need to start a structural biology project on your own.
Some of the content comes from a MOOC on biological crystallography and from a MOOC on NMR, released on FUN MOOC between 2017 and 2024. We have added videos and/or links to online courses on sample preparation, cryo-EM, NMR, X-ray crystallography, 3D prediction and numerical simulations.

About us

Whether researchers or teacher-researchers, we are all attached to disseminating the basics of structural biology. To find out more about us, and to see in which videos each of us is involved, follow the link below.
