Theoretical and practical course focused on applications of vibrational spectroscopy (IR and Raman) in biophysics and biochemistry. Organized as a block (3 weeks) hands-on training out of semester (august/september) in the form of an international "Summer School on Vibrational Spectroscopy in Biophysics and Biochemistry". Schooling in English. Possibility of individual experimental research using sophisticated spectrometers. Convenient for students of the 3rd and 4th year of the specialization biophysics and chemical physics, doctoral students F4 (biophysics, chemical and macromolecular physics), and students of biophysical, chemical and biochemical curricula from other domestic as well as foreign universities.
