Functional High Throughput Technologies Australia Meeting 2018
This year's meeting will bring together experts from all around Australia and beyond. We will offer introductory workshops on all major high-throughput technologies that are currently established or emerging in Australia including CRISPR, RNAi, compound and 3D screening, coupled with High Content Analysis and Flow Cytometry-based screening. These areas will be complemented by plenary talks by our invited speakers, and more opportunities for Australasian early-career researchers (such as PhD students and Postdocs) to present their research.
