CTR Placental Biology Course 2nd - 7th July 2017
The Loke Centre for Trophoblast Research will again run its acclaimed course in contemporary placental biology between 2nd and 7th July 2017. Created to provide background information and insight into contemporary areas of placental research, the inaugural course in 2012 attracted an international group of graduate students and post-doctoral research associates. As usual, numbers will be restricted to ensure personal tuition. The course was designed to be complementary to the highly successful programme devised by Dr Anne Croy and colleagues at Queen’s University, Kingston, Ontario, but the two are not interdependent.
The course fee includes consumables, meals, accommodation, and registration for the 2-day CTR Annual Trophoblast meeting on July 10th-11th 2017.
The Course is now full.
For an application form please email the Centre Administrator at contact@trophoblast.cam.ac.uk.
