FLOW CYTOMETRY FOR GENOME SIZING, EDITING, AND RNA TARGETING

SPONSOR: BECKMAN COULTER

Moderators:    J. Pon Samuel, CORTEVA AgriscienceTM, Agriculture Division of DowDuPontTM, and Lama Kdouh, Beckman Coulter

9:00 am – 5:00 pm For Fee Workshop, Separate Registration Required

In continuation of the inaugural Flow Cytometry workshop, this year’s Grow with the Flow workshop will focus on various topics for targeting and gene editing with plant specific applications. Experts will present and be available for discussions on genome sizing, genome editing, and RNA targeting. In addition, presentations on technology updates and Flow Cytometry best practices will be discussed. During the workshop live demonstration will be provided. Following the workshop, experts will be available to answer questions on the capabilities of the technology and the equipment in addition to any other relevant information at the exhibition hall during the rest of the conference.

Advanced Registration is required to participate in this workshop.
