[RASMB] teaching materials on sedimentation?

[Borries Demeler]

Dear Jeff,

you might find some of my handouts from my last workshop we had here
in San Antonio useful for teaching sedimentation. The workshop handouts
can be found at:

http://www.ultrascan.uthscsa.edu/workshop-062004/updates.html

(click on updates to get PDF files).

I have also some course materials and homework examples available at:

http://www.demeler.uthscsa.edu/biophys_chem/

Finally, my UltraScan software has simulation modules that I use in
teaching.  They simulate velocity experiments, equilibrium experiments,
approach to equilibrium experiments, and self-association. I find that
simulating experiments per software is often quite helpful to illustrate
various sedimentation concepts.

Let me know if you need further information.

Regards, -Borries
