International workshop "CRISPResUsing CRISPR-based genomic editing for crop protection" 5-9 July 2021

The workshop will provide the students with theoretical and practical knowledge about the CRISPR technology and its uses in plant biology and breeding. The students will learn how to plan a gene editing experiment and how to practically make it, in some relevant crops.

This will be done using innovative and technologically advanced e-learning approaches, including 3D immersive and interactive videos and digital laboratories. The teaching team is composed of 10 trainers from 3 Universities (Milano, Prague and Copenhagen).

The workshop, which will host 30 students, requires 40 hours of interactive e-learning and 25 hours of team-based home work, resulting in a final report that will provide 3 ECTS. It will take place on july 5th-9th 2021, on Teams and Moodle platforms.
