The Centre for Stem Cell Biology undertakes basic and applied research related to the use of embryonic stem cells for medicine. As a Centre of Excellence, our goals are:
- To accelerate the progress of human ES cell research in the UK by providing a range of support for researchers. - To disseminate technical information and protocols pertinent to hES culture and development. - To provide rapid access to expertise and facilities.
To serve this purpose, the CSCB is now offering a Visiting Scientist Programme.
The aim of the visiting scientist programme is to offer short and medium term visits to provide the facilities and expertise to support pilot projects and knowledge transfer in hESC biology in order to obtain either preliminary results prior to further grant applications or expertise in particular techniques related to stem cell biology.
Application Procedure If you are interested in either a short or medium term visit, contact the Centre stating the research project you will be pursuing, the types of experiments you wish to perform during your visit at the CSCB and the techniques you would like to learn.
There is a limit to the number of visits the CSCB can host, but all applications from industry and academic institutions will be considered. The cost will vary with the length of the visit and the types of experiments performed. |
