Advances in Targeted Genome Editing: Applications for Zinc Finger Nucleases
Organized in collaboration with the Biotech Research and Innovation Center (BRIC).
Participate in this two-day symposium to learn about the latest advances and uses of the zinc finger nuclease (ZFN) technology. The symposium is co-sponsored with the Biotech Research and Innovation Centre (BRIC) in Copenhagen. This event will include presentations on the uses of ZFNs in the areas of cell lines, stem cell applications, and the development of animal models from pioneers in the technology. There will also be breakout workshop tracks and a poster session.
