The 2020 workshop is now completed and impressions can be found here. Information and teaching materials for the 2020 workshop can be found here: The Optogenetics Australia Hands-On Workshop 2020 will bring together multidisciplinary researchers, in particular early career researchers looking for broad training opportunities in all aspects of optogenetics for all tissues and biological questions. This inaugural workshop will be held at the Australian Regenerative Medicine Institute (ARMI) and Monash University 13-14 February, 2020. PROGRAM The program covers optogenetics from the development of molecular tools (e.g. light-activated protein-protein interactions), to light stimulation in cells (e.g. for manipulation of cell signaling) and methods for in vivo optogenetics in a variety of tissues (e.g. using wireless illumination devices that are not limited to the CNS).
