Cell Biology Virtual Event Series 2019



 

The 3rd Annual Event in the Cell Biology Virtual Event Series is now available for OnDemand viewing.  This years event provides an opportunity to discuss recent discoveries in biological research, advancements in techniques, and tool developments in cell research.

Cell Biology 2019 Virtual Event continues to create a valuable platform for inspiring global and interdisciplinary collaboration in a virtual environment, to study cells – their physiological properties, structure, the organelles they contain, environmental interactions, life cycle, division and death, on a microscopic and molecular level.

This years event includes the following tracks:

  • Spatial Omics
  • Microbiome
  • Cell Biology of Genetic Diseases

Our virtual conference allows you to participate in a global setting with no travel or cost to you. The event will remain open 6 months from the date of the live event.  The webinars will be available for unlimited on-demand viewing.  This virtual conference also offers increased reach for the global cell biology community with a high degree of interaction through live-streaming video and chat sessions.

Continuing Education

 

LabRoots is approved as a provider of continuing education programs in the clinical laboratory sciences by the ASCLS P.A.C.E. ® Program. By attending this event, you can earn 1 Continuing Education credit per presentation for a maximum of 14 credits.
