Training & Tutorials

Training provided by the Canadian Center for Hydrodynamics:

We are committed to training our users in all aspects of analytical and preparative ultracentrifugation by imparting a broad spectrum of biophysical expertise. Our training is designed to help AUC practicioners to succeed with tasks covering diverse topics such as protocol development and experimental design strategies, problem solving, and advanced data analysis,

We can provide some training remotely using teleconferencing sessions, as well as on-site or through regularly offered workshops at the University of Lethbridge in Alberta, Canada. Please contact us to schedule your next training session or workshop.
