European Molecular Biology Organization

DEVELOPMENTAL NEUROBIOLOGY:


From Worms to Mammals

8 - 22 July, 2011 | King's College London|London | UK


This course is aimed at young post-docs or mature PhD students who have no or limited experience of developmental neurobiology and need to acquire technical and intellectual knowledge in the field.

Our Centre groups a unique set of technical skills and scientific expertise related to the development of the nervous system of 6 different model organisms from the rather simple nematode to the complex mammal. Moreover, in our respective species, we are using very specialized techniques exploiting at best the different qualities of each model organism to answer the key questions in modern developmental neurobiology

MAIN OBJECTIVES

Learn the state of the art techniques used in modern developmental neuroscience



Acquire a knowledge of brain development in 6 different species (C.elegans, Drosophila, zebrafish, Xenopus, chick and mouse



Interact with international leading neuroscientists

   
   

At the end of the course, our aim is to have informed young scientists in thebroadest set oftechniques and model organisms, giving them the intellectual and technical tools to explore most efficiently any hot issue in neurobiology.

We look forward to seeing you in London!
