General information
The aim of the training course is to introduce young scientists into the current concepts, methodologies and tools used in the study of programmed cell death. Lecturers in this training course will present a 35 minute seminar, followed by a 10 minute discussion. The sessions are intended to provide a general review of the literature, recent techniques and methodologies in cell death research, in combination with the opportunity to discuss afterwards. TopicsImaging subcellular events during cell deathMarkus Rehm (Dublin, Ireland) In vivo imaging of cell death Francis Blankenberg (Stanford, USA) Systems biology of cell death Laurence Calzone (Paris, France) Methods for the detection of cell death Lorenzo Galluzzi (Villejuif, France) Therapeutic targeting of apoptosis, an overview of different strategies and clinical trials Klaus-Michael Debatin (Ulm, Germany)
The ECDO Honorary Lecture will be presented by Dr. Guido Kroemer (Villejuif, France) in the late afternoon of Friday September 3. The conference ends on Saturday September 4 around 13:00. Conference themes
