CRISPR-Cas9 Genome Editing Bootcamp (Advanced Level)
Dr. Kiran Musunuru
Genome-editing tools, particularly CRISPR-Cas9, are transforming biomedical investigation. This practical, hands-on workshop, organized by the CVI Genetic and Epigenetic Origins of Disease (GEODe) Program, is intended for anybody interested in learning how to use CRISPR-Cas9-based technologies. The advanced-level workshop will follow a flipped-classroom, active-learning model. Participants will review an online video/slides before the meeting. In the workshop, participants will work in teams on virtual experiments in which base editing, epigenome editing, and other advanced concepts are explored (requiring participants to bring their own WiFi-capable laptops).

In the workshop, participants will work in teams on virtual experiments in which knockout/knock-in mice and cell lines are generated (requiring participants to bring their own WiFi-capable laptops). Participants will learn online tools to design CRISPR-Cas9 reagents, common pitfalls to avoid, and interpreting data from genome-editing experiments.
