Students on this EMBO Practical Course will be taught state-of-the-art approaches and techniques in modern developmental neuroscience, covering different stages of neural development ranging from neural induction to circuit formation and plasticity.
Registration deadline: 12 March, 2017
The conference will explore the latest findings and technological developments in the field of gene regulation.
The goal of the meeting is to bring together scientists working in cell mechanobiology with an emphasis on the integration of mechanical processes across scales, from subcellular components to tissues.
Abstract submission deadline: 15 April 2017
Join to learn how to best prepare and implement your CRISPR experiments to expedite and improve your research.
You will benefit from abundant one-on-one access to our instructors who share their world-class expertise for you to advance your individual research!
Early Bird Registration Deadline: February 22, 2017
Abstract Submission Deadline:
February 15, 2017
“Generation and Regeneration of Biological Tissues Through Cellular Diversification and Cooperation”. We will explore how cellular diversification and self organization are controlled and how they contribute to tissue pattern and shape, under normal physiology, repair and regeneration.
This meeting will focus on the latest developments in epigenetic research and will address also the importance of this field in disease and drug development.
Oral abstract deadline: 01 February 2017
Poster abstract deadline: 01 April 2017

The MRC Harwell Institute is excited to announce its Summer Workshops. There are a variety of one day courses to help bridge the training gaps in laboratory animal science and genetics including bioinformatics, inheritance and lab skills for husbandry staff.
The Developmental Biology Teaching Workshop introduces both senior faculty and our next generation of developmental biologists to a variety of easily implemented laboratory tools and a host of research organisms. Register by April 15.
We invite you to participate to the first European Amphibian Club
Recent innovations in genomics, imaging and in the Crispr/Cas9 technology renewed the value of amphibians as key organisms for both conceptual and medical advances in genetic and developmental diseases.
Join us in Shakespeare country for the 3rd Warwick-Wellcome Quantitative Biomedicine Programme symposium on “The Epigenome: Mechanisms of Maintenance” at the University of Warwick. Travel awards from CoB are available for students/postdoctoral fellows who wish to attend the meeting.
