Date and time
Location
Description
If you are a CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing novice or a seasoned professional we would like to welcome you to our first Gene Editing Workshop.
The aim is for this event to be a technical workshop with a relaxed informal atmosphere. We hope to provide a forum for ICH researchers to share experiences, best practice and knowledge. We also hope to support the formation of collaborations and the development of junior researchers.
