The workshop will feature the following scientific program:

  • 12 talks on methods relevant to bioinorganic chemistry
  • 12 2-h repetitions of hands-on training in small groups (typically not exceeding 6 participants) in the following 21 methods: (1) Fundamentals of EPR spectroscopy; (2) pulsed EPR techniques; (3) spin labels in EPR spectroscopy; (4) analysis of EPR spectra; (5) Mössbauer spectroscopy; (6) stopped-flow absorption spectroscopy; (7) the freeze-quench method; (8) MCD spectroscopy; (9) resonance Raman spectroscopy; (10) X-ray spectroscopy; (11) X-ray crystallography; (12) protein electrochemistry; (13) prediction of spectroscopic  parameters using density functional theory calculations; (14) high-resolution mass spectrometry; (15) small-molecule QQQ LC/MS; (16) isothermal titration calorimetry; (17) anaerobic protein purification; (18) cryoreduction experiments; (19) similarity networks in bioinformatics; (20) NMR spectroscopy of paramagnetic molecules; and (21) cell biology of metals.
  • A plenary lecture given by Roland Lill (University of Marburg, Germany)
  • A 2-h poster session
  • Four 90-min presentations on “test cases” presented by JoAnne Stubbe (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), Frank Neese (Max Planck Institute for Chemical Energy Conversion, Germany ), Lance Seefeldt (Utah State University), and Michael Green (University of California, Irvine); these talks are a joint session with the 2018 Frontiers in Metallobiochemistry Symposium on June 6, 2018.
