Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following: Workshop on Techniques in Modeling Human Cancer in Mice 2017 to be held on 8/20/17 - 8/27/17
This workshop provides training in the use of genetically defined laboratory mice as tools for asking questions about gene function and the role of genetics in the biology of cancer. Lectures will be given in the morning by world-renowned scientists, followed by intensive hands-on laboratory sessions. Didactic lectures will reflect current knowledge of modeling cancer in a variety of organ sites and will emphasize common themes in cancer research and modeling. During the hands-on laboratory sessions, participants will develop skills in cancer model manipulations and surgical techniques that they will be able to apply to their own research. The techniques learned are broadly applicable to many cancer types, such as brain, breast, colon, leukemia/lymphoma, and prostate cancer. Participants completing the course will acquire a practical knowledge of how to characterize and analyze specific mouse cancer models.

Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following: 26th Annual Short Course on Experimental Models of Human Cancer to be held on 8/13/17 - 8/19/17
The course focuses on the mouse as an experimental tool in cancer research. It is held in a retreat-like setting and is limited to 35 participants to ensure a supportive, interactive learning atmosphere.
Topics include: genetics of the laboratory mouse, tools for genetic analysis, developmental genetics and cancer, genetic models in cancer research, genetics of inbred mouse strains, spontaneous/induced mutants, lab animal husbandry, genetic mapping, physical mapping, candidate gene identification, statistical genetics, complex trait analysis, gene expression analysis, strategies in induced mutagenesis, bioinformatics, development, growth control and malignancy and mouse models for cancer research.
