Dear Fellow Scientists,

The new workshop on 3D cell culture models for projects related to the use or the development of anticancer drugs is scheduled on December 11 – 12, 2017. The anticancer drug testing workshop will include a lecture on the basics of drug testing in vitro and the different 3D cell culture systems to produce preinvasive and invasive tumors, classroom exercise for data analysis and presentation, and hands-on practical with tumors in culture based on different drug screening assays. The workshop will benefit those who are new to the use of anticancer drugs in vitro as well as more seasoned researchers wishing to place anticancer drug related projects in a physiologically relevant context.

Participation in the workshop requires having REM biosafety training and bloodborne pathogen training, sufficient knowledge in 3D cell culture or 3D3C 3D cell culture training workshop.  The course fee for the workshop is $350. The registration deadline is November 17, 2017.  If you would like to have more information or attend the workshop, please see details below and attached and contact me.

Sincerely,

Tim Kwok
