Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Cold Spring Harbor, New York
June 7 - 27, 2006
This intensive laboratory and lecture course is designed for biologists interested in applying their expertise to the study of mouse development. Lectures provide the conceptual basis for contemporary research in mouse embryogenesis and organogenesis, while laboratory practicals provide extensive hands-on introduction to mouse embryo analysis. Experimental techniques to be covered include in vitro culture and manipulation of pre- and post-implantation embryos, embryo transfer, culture and genetic manipulation of embryonic stem cells, production of chimeras by embryo aggregation and by ES cell injection, and transgenesis by pronuclear microinjection. In addition, this year's practicals will feature increased emphasis on phenotypic analysis of mutants, including techniques of histology, in situ hybridization, immunohistochemistry, skeletal preparation, organ culture, and tissue recombination.
