CAR-T Cell Therapy: Prospects of Design and Application
Get Familiarized with the Basics of CAR-T Immunotherapy
Pre-Conference Workshop
Chimeric antigen receptor-T (CAR-T) cell therapies mark a significant breakthrough in treating a wide range of diseases including blood cancers like leukemia and lymphoma. This approach involves harvesting T-cells from varied sources, followed by genetic modification to produce CAR-T for their specific immunotherapies.
Join us for an all-day, hands-on workshop dedicated to the practical, high-fidelity process of CAR-T cell production and analysis!
This workshop is designed to give participants a basic understanding of the complex, step-by-step workflow needed for reproducible, potentially clinical-grade cell engineering.
