INNOVATIVE CELLULAR MODELS FOR ANIMAL SCIENCE

 

 

Support the 3Rs (Replacement, Reduction and Refinement) through the use of organoids

This Summer School is organized in the framework of EuroFAANG, a European Infrastructure project (2023 –2025) that will develop a concept for a sustainable pan-European infrastructure to facilitate genotype-to-phenotype (G2P) research across various farmed animal species.

The summer school will gather speakers from different European countries to propose a state-of-the-art overview of research on organoids/organ-on-chips, with a specific focus on farm animal species. Note that we will not deal with cancer.

Sessions will cover a large field of organs, functions, with applications in nutrition, health and reproductive biotechnologies. A virtual demonstration on the making of organoids will be proposed.

A round table will be organized with different speakers representative of these different fields as well as a representative of an animal feeding company.

Groups of participants (4-5 per group) will be formed at the beginning of the Summer school, based on research and species of interest. Each group will choose a subject in relation to their specific interest. They will present the result of their work at the end of the summer school.

FOR WHOM ?

PhD students, post-docs, engineers, early career researchers (EU residents).
