CRISPR Virtual Event Series 2019

The 2nd Annual Event in the CRISPR Virtual Event Series is now available On-Demand! This event continues the conversation of the abilities of CRISPR-based editing, next-gen editing tools, precision in gene editing and using CRISPR for drug discovery.

The tracks for this years event include:

  • CRISPR Biology
    • Discovery and Classification of CRISPR systems/anti-CRISPRs
  • CRISPR in Gene Editing Applications
    • Gene Therapy
    • Animal Model Development for Medical Research
    • Agriculture and Food Security
  • Ethics and Regulation of Gene Editing
    • Intellectual Property Disputes
    • Regulatory Framework
    • Ethical concerns

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 CRISPR community with a high degree of interaction through live-streaming video and chat sessions.
