Train and learn with us at the EDDU.
Our Training and Outreach working group is involved in a variety of activities designed to help researchers learn how to use iPSCs in their projects, and to provide opportunities for them to engage with others in the iPSC field.
“Introduction to iPSCs” hands-on workshops
- Lectures and hands-on training for working with iPSCs
- Trainers from the EDDU and STEMCELL Technologies
- Sponsorship provided by McGill’s Healthy Brains, Healthy Lives (HBHL) and STEMCELL Technologies
- Our second virtual workshop took place in January 2022.
Access to virtual training resources
- Through the Neuro YouTube channel you can access videos of our iPSC protocols in up to six different languages to learn how to culture iPSCs and iPSC-derived neural cells.
Open protocols
- Development of openly available protocols for culturing iPSCs and differentiating iPSCs into specific cell types
- Visit our data portal for more information about our iPSC protocols
Open access software
- Development of openly available software to accelerate data analysis
- To learn more about our software, visit our data portal
Undergraduate training opportunities
- Opportunities for undergraduate students to work within the EDDU
- Mentored by senior researcher with opportunities for projects from stem cells to developing image analysis software
- Contact lenore.beitel [at] mcgill.ca (Dr. Lenore Beitel) for further information on how you can join the team.
iPSC Seminars
- The Neuro’s iPSC Seminar Series welcomes trainees and senior scientists working with induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to present their cutting-edge research
- Visit our Events page to learn more about past speakers
- Watch our iPSC seminar video on YouTube to learn more about the seminar
