Latest Technologies in Genome Editing and Assisted Reproductive Techniques TrainingLatest Technologies in Genome Editing and Assisted Reproductive Techniques Training
The “Latest Advances in Genome Editing and Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) in Laboratory Animals Training” will be held on 15–19 September 2025 at the Izmir Biomedicine and Genome Center (IBG), organized by the International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (ICGEB).
This comprehensive training program aims to provide both theoretical knowledge and hands-on experience in CRISPR-based genome editing techniques and assisted reproductive technologies (ART) in laboratory animals (mouse and zebrafish).
Course Highlights
ü Genome editing strategy and sgRNA/ssDNA design using CRISPR
ü Delivery of gene targeting tools into mouse and zebrafish embryos via microinjection or electroporation
ü In vitro fertilization (IVF) in mice, embryo and sperm manipulation, and cryopreservation
ü Theoretical lectures combined with practical, hands-on laboratory sessions
ü This course aims to equip participants with key skills in genome editing and promote regional collaboration and technology implementation.
Who Should Apply?
ü Researchers and technicians working with animal models and genome editing
ü Early-career scientists and PhD students (highly encouraged to apply)
Registration Fee: €200
(Includes 5 nights in a double room, breakfast and lunch).
Travel expenses must be covered by participants.
Funding Opportunities
ü A limited number of grants covering the course fee and local hospitality are available for selected participants under 35 years old from ICGEB Member States
ü Partial travel support available for selected participants from LDC (Least Developed Countries)
