Training is an important component of the CAN-ASC initiative. COVID-19 forced us to delay our in-person workshops and travel awards for lab exchanges, so we filled the gap with a series of webinars. These webinars focused on various aspects of translational human immunology research, ranging from the broad (sex & gender considerations, ethics) to the more specific (general best practices, detailed seminars on specific, commonly-used methods).
(See below for links to watch the webinar recordings.)
The webinars were aimed at trainees, technicians and investigators who are working in the field of human immunology (or are planning to).
