Name: 3rd Annual Preclinical Imaging Workshop
Start: 2023-10-16
End: 2023-10-20
Location: Congress Center of NCSR Democritus (theoretical part) & BIOEMTECH Laboratories (practical part)

Overview:

BIOEMTECH Laboratories presents a 5-day workshop that includes theoretical and practical aspects of preclinical models’ development, imaging, and theragnostic assessment under a GLP environment.

The workshop provides a general overview of licensing and operating an imaging facility for rodent models and specific details for selecting and applying imaging modalities for various models.

Each year, different animal models are selected, presented, and discussed in detail.

This year (2023), the following models will be presented:
• Crohn’s disease (gut fibrosis)
• Breast cancer: 4T1 & MDA-MB-231 models

The practical part of the workshop offers training in mouse handling for imaging experiments (using inanimate models) and operating imaging equipment.

This year, the agenda will be enriched with additional sessions on leadership (team building and leading) and mountain hiking to complement the scientific core of the workshop.

Places for practical training are limited and reserved on a first-come, first-served basis.
