X-Ray Cristallography, Cryo-EM and Structural Biology: Historical Highlights

    With a journey back into the history of crystallography, the concluding lecture of Nobel Week as part of the month of science and technology took place.

    The 2002 Nobel Prize winner in chemistry, Kurt Wüthrich, showed that the NMR method - the phenomenon of nuclear magnetic resonance - can be applied to biological macromolecules. It has been known for more than half a century and consists in the fact that atoms placed in a strong constant magnetic field with a weak alternating electromagnetic field superimposed on it resonate at a certain frequency. K. Wüthrich was able to develop a way to determine from which atom of a large molecule each resonance signal comes.

     The lecture was listened to with great interest and many questions were asked by the participants. The teaching staff, scientists and students of the M. Auezov South Kazakhstan University took an active part. The lecture was held in presentation-Q & A format.

     In general, within the framework of the Nobel Lecture Week, all the announced lectures on economics, physics, mathematics, chemistry and medicine were held. Every participant and listener of the lectures is deeply grateful. Lecturers and moderators are also grateful for organizing such events.

And we from our side also say THANK YOU and SEE YOU!
