Biophysics 520 / Chemistry 520 - Biophysical Chemistry I: This course offers an overview of protein, nucleic acid, lipid and carbohydrate structures. Intra- and inter-molecular forces, protein folding, solution thermodynamics, ligand interactions and diffusion, and molecular dynamics are also discussed.

Biophysics 521 / Chemistry 521 - Biophysical Chemistry II: This course provides an introduction to several important physical techniques used in biophysical research. Topics include several types of spectroscopy, structure determination by X-ray diffraction, NMR, and microscopy.

Biophysics 602 -  Principles of Macromolecular Crystallography: In-depth theory and practical methods for determining three-dimensional structures of large molecules by X-ray crystallography. This is an excellent course for graduate students engaged in research in a structural biology laboratory or for students collaborating with crystallography groups.

Biophysics 603 - Multidimensional NMR Spectroscopy: This Biophysics/Chemistry course covers the basic principles of NMR spectroscopy, theoretical and experimental aspects of multidimensional solid-state and solution NMR spectroscopy, and biomolecular applications of various NMR techniques. The power of NMR experiments to address biological questions and structural and dynamical studies of membrane proteins will also be covered. Key experiments will also be demonstrated on standard samples.

Chemical Biology 501 - Chemical Biology I: This course provides a high-level overview on the structure, function, and chemistry of biological macromolecules including proteins, nucleic acids and carbohydrates. The course features topics in macromolecular structure, protein folding and thermodynamics, and enzyme kinetics.

Chemical Biology 502 - Chemical Biology II: The basic concepts explored in Chemical Biology 501 are applied to three broad areas of interest to both chemists and biologists: combinatorial methods, signal transduction and small molecule probes, and protein translation and in vivo folding.

Pharmacology 619 - Structural Basis for Drug Action: Atomic structures of proteins are powerful tools for the investigation of drug action. In this course, the molecular interactions between important pharmacophores and their targets will be surveyed, with the ultimate goal of teaching students how to interpret and use structural data to facilitate their own studies of molecules that modulate protein function.
