Application Form: CAN-ASC Workshop Application
Event Program: CAN-ASC Workshop Program
The Canadian Autoimmunity Standardization Core (CAN-ASC) is excited to offer our first hands-on, laboratory and lecture-based workshop. CAN-ASC was formed by national leaders in immunology to standardize and improve the quality of immunological research in Canada. This 3.5-day workshop is designed advance the ability of attendees to design and conduct common standard operating procedures (SOPs) and learn new immunological techniques. This workshop is hosted in collaboration with ImmunoT, a UBC-based immunotherapeutic cluster focused on reducing the translational gaps between basic scientists, clinicians, industry, and health-policy experts.
