Participants will learn the basic principles of High-Throughput Microscopy (HTM) applied to RNAi and drug screening. The workshop takes the form of a small HTM project: participants will be introduced to the theory of HTM, involved in discussions on how to design a RNAi/drug screen, perform an actual HTM experiment (including a bioassay and automated image acquisition), perform image analysis and statistical data analysis. Some applications of HTM will be highlighted on research seminars.

Application deadline: 18 May 2018.
