FISHing for RNAs: classical to single molecule approaches

Overview

Registration is not yet open for this event. If you are interested in receiving more information please register your interest.

Course overview

Over the past decades, it became evident that the specific amount and localisation of an RNA transcript are important to understand the biological function of its (non-) coding gene. Whereby state-of-the-art in situ hybridisation (ISH) technologies are key to visualise these RNAs in a given tissue or cell.

This course will teach participants to apply three powerful RNA visualisation techniques, all in histological tissue samples: conventional in situ hybridisation (ISH), hybridisation chain reaction ISH (HCR-ISH), and the cutting edge single molecule fluorescent ISH (smFISH). In addition, essential tissues embedding protocols adapted to facilitate visual interrogation of RNA transcripts will also be covered.

Benefit from our excellent trainer to participant ratio for personalised training in addition to world class research facilities and networking opportunities with leading experts in the field.

Warning

EMBL wishes to warn sponsors of EMBL conferences and courses of fraudulent schemes purporting to offer sponsorship opportunities on behalf of EMBL or affiliated with EMBL officials. One current scam campaign of which we are aware is conducted using the name ‘Judy Eastman’ (judy@gopcontact.a2hosted.com) and entails approaches to sponsors offering sponsorship opportunities on EMBL’s behalf. Please be kindly advised that all relevant communication regarding sponsorship of EMBL conferences, symposia and courses is handled by EMBL directly and is sent from an official EMBL account. EMBL does not work with any external providers on sponsorship acquisition.

Please also note that:

  • EMBL never provides attendee lists for purchase. Any offers of such are fraudulent.
  • EMBL will never call or email you to ask for your credit card details or to request a payment.
  • All payments are on invoice.

Suspicious communications purportedly from, for or on behalf of EMBL should be reported to EMBL at the following email address sponsorship@embl.de.
