PROGRAM 2007
International
Embryonic Stem Cell Workshop (October
9-11, 2007)
This
workshop will cover a spectrum of topics, from basic biology to issues
with therapeutic applications, highlighting functional differences between
human and mouse embryonic stem cells. With lectures on early embryonic
development, ESC derivation/culture, ES cell differentiation protocols,
methods for genetic modifications and therapeutic transplantations this
workshop aims to give researchers both the theoretical knowledge behind
embryonic stem cell research and the practical knowledge on how best
to use the cells for their specific purposes.
Application deadline is September 30, 2007.

Stem Cell Biology and Bioinformatics Tools (September
20-26, 2007)
This
one week postgraduate course presents researchers with important bioinformatic
analysis skills used in the study of stem cells.
The
course consists of lectures, computer exercises and case studies. Students
will have an opportunity to provide example problems.
Application
deadline is September 4th, 2007.

Development of the nervous system (September
10-14, 2007)
This
one week postgraduate level course covers key mechanisms in the development
of the central and peripheral nervous system in vertebrates, different
model systems and important concepts of neurobiology in the context
of regenerative medicine. The course consists of lectures, seminars,
discussions and tutorials and small projects.
More
information about the course will be posted here during April 2007.
Application deadline is May 15, 2007.

Advanced course in Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine
(August 27, 2007-January 13 2008)
This
advanced undergraduate course is both theoretical and experimental.
The course is open to students interested in the area of stem cell biology
and regenerative medicine. After the course, the students should know
the basics of stem cell biology and the medical use of cell therapy.
The students should be able to apply and understand the theoretical
basis for key technologies utilized in stem cell research. The course
covers key concepts in translational research from the laboratory to
the clinic.
The
course consists of lectures, seminars, group discussions, training in
writing grant applications and a practical experimental project carried
out at a stem cell research laboratory. The course spans the entire
Autumn semester (week 35 2007 - week 2 2008)

Bioinformatics for Cell Biologists (May 7-11, 2007)
This
one week long postgraduate level course provides essential, practical
knowledge about computational and bioinformatics methods in biology
for molecular biologists, specifically developmental biology. The integration
of computational methods and resources into research projects, in planning
and execution stages are emphasized throughout the course. The course
commences by introducing important sources of public database and analysis
tool resources such as sequence analysis methods that have the most
wide spread usage in biology. Common sequence analysis tools are described
and used in practice to highlight their advantages and limitations.
Practical work and discussions will bridge sequence analysis to structures.
3D structures, molecular modeling, domain analysis and structure prediction
will be covered. Course includes lectures on current advanced topics
that will reflect the leading edge of research and cover knowledge integration
and essential systems biology. Integration into practice is emphasized
by a mini project evolving throughout the course. The course is jointly
organized by DBRM, the A-Star Bioinformatics Institute in Singapore
and the Postgraduate Program in Cell Biology at KI.

Phenotyping of Genetically Modified Mice (March 5-16, 2007)
This
two week long postgraduate level course covers basic skills in systematic
and standardized phenotypic analysis of mutant (transgenic and knock
in/out) mice, relevant aspects of mouse biology and physiology, strategies
for developing GEM:s and specific challenges in the breeding of mice.
The course is organized in collaboration with the Karolinska Center
for Transgene Technologies and Import Portal North Campus (KCTT) and
the Postgraduate program in Cell Biology and Genetics at KI.
