EGRET-cofund Advanced Course and Trainingsworkshop 3: Groningen (NL, late 2017)

“Sensory biophysics and diagnostics; genetics of glaucoma”

During this workshop, fellows will be trained and educated on the auditory and visual biophysics and diagnostics, as well as the molecular genetics and genetic epidemiology of glaucoma. Furthermore, a visit to one of our partner organisations Johnson & Johnson Vision (formerly known as Abbott Medical Optics and the producer of glaucoma drainage devices and inventor of two important glaucoma drugs) is planned.

The third EGRET-cofund workshop will be held from the 20th - 24th of November 2017 in Groningen (NL) as an integrated trainings event with EGRET+ program. For the full program of the workshop, click here.
