COMBIVET AND BSEV JOINT SUMMER SCHOOL 2022
Basics to work with Extracellular Vesicles
The fifth research school organized by the Combivet Research group of The Estonian university of Life Sciences will take place from 27th of September to 29th of September.
In this exclusive summer school, the students will get hands on experience in the basics of EV isolation, characterization and the related data analysis from a panel of international experts with years of experience handling EVs. A series of lectures covering the required theoretical knowledge, best practices, tips and tricks, troubleshooting and adherence to the standards set by the International Society for Extracellular vesicles (ISEV) would also be offered. Latest developments in the field such as mass production of EVs will be thoroughly discussed along with the basics such as size exclusion chromatography, tangential flow filtration, ultracentrifugation, nanoparticle tracing analysis, flow cytometry for EVs, EV RNA extraction and characterization. The school is well suited for EV researchers who require a firm foundation in basics to begin their journey into the EV world.
