2008 Interactive Training Initiative

Applied Proteomics – Tips & Tricks

Short 1-3 days training courses from September through November

Debriefing Workshop on 4 December 2008, during the European Bioalpine Convention 2008 in Geneva

Back in 2001, the SPS was amongst the first national Proteomics Society to be created in Europe . Willing to remain innovative, the SPS has created in 2006 the original and dynamic Applied Proteomics Interactive Training Initiative.

The Applied Proteomics Interactive Training Initiative is an event which integrates short applied on-site training courses to be held in specialised laboratories spread throughout Switzerland . The courses, intensive experimental training over a few days in one specific topic of proteomics, are offered from September through November 2008 in one of the numerous Swiss hosting laboratories. All training participants and organisers will then meet in a joint debriefing workshop on December 4, 2008, in parallel to the EBAC'08 convention.
The workshop will be the occasion to present the summary of the training courses and to share impressions and good practices learned during the training experience with other students and interested scientists. Participants can be students, but also senior scientists willing to learn something new, and the registration is open to both academic and industrial participants.

More information on the offered courses in the SPS website.

The program of the December 4 workshop will be announced in October, once the courses will be already running.
