The Power os SPACHIPS

CNC, Coimbra, Portugal, 20-21 september, 2023

The MICC-CNC, in collaboration with A4Cell and Lusopalex, is delighted to extend an invitation for you to participate in the engaging hands-on workshop titled “The Power of SPAChips”. The workshop is scheduled to take place at the  Auditorium of CNC-Polo I on September 19-20, 2023.

During this workshop, A4Cell will introduce and demonstrate the SPAchip technology, offering participants the unique opportunity to test it using their own biological samples. The revolutionary SPAChips technology enables an immersive exploration of nanobiosensors and facilitates real-time monitoring of intracellular pathways by measuring pH and intracellular calcium changes in living samples.

To gain a deeper understanding of the SPAchip technology: https://www.a4cell.com/spachip-technology

Additionally, you can learn more about the CytoCHECK SPAchip® kits by visiting: https://www.a4cell.com/products.

The workshop is open to the entire CIBB community. However, please note that there is limited availability for the hands-on session. To secure your spot at the workshop, we kindly request you to register using the following link:https://forms.gle/sm4SSaXCjD9RyFeb6

For any inquiries or clarifications, please do not hesitate to contact the MICC team.

Looking forward to welcoming you at the workshop.
