Focus Training on Macro- and Microglial Cells - New Technologies for Refined Neural Cell Research

Course - Bergisch Gladbach/Cologne, Germany

This 2-day training course focusses on improving and enabling studies that range from neural and glial cell interaction and research into neural stem cells, to neuroimmunology. This course addresses techniques required to isolate defined cell populations from early postnatal brains. It consists of theoretical presentations and practical lab sessions that enable participants to learn improved ways of tissue preparation, purification of primary glial cells with magnetic cell separation, and basic cell analysis with flow cytometry. These techniques greatly reduce the overall cell preparation time from days or weeks to a few hours. They can be applied in every cell culture laboratory and will improve sample quality for reliable and reproducible results.
