Application Deadline: April 15, 2021

Maximum participants: 15 (Registration does not guarantee acceptance). Attendees accepted will be notified by April 30, 2021

The Neuro's Early Drug Discovery Unit (EDDU), in collaboration with STEMCELL Technologies, will offer a comprehensive 3-day virtual workshop on deriving and maintaining high-quality human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) form somatic cells.

Topics covered include:

Reprogramming
Routine Maintenance
Quality Control
Differentiation to Neuronal Progenitor Cells
CRISPR/Cas9 Gene Editing

We will discuss and demonstrate important aspects of these workflows and participants will receive online lectures and virtual lab sessions demonstrating the techniques. The workshop will be facilitated by the trainers from The Neuro and STEMCELL Technologies .The registration fee will be waived for McGill students and trainees and is $200 for all non-McGill students and trainees (payable once accepted for the course). Maximum participants: 15 (Registration does not guarantee acceptance).
