Ana Filipa Louro, a PhD student from the MIT Portugal PhD program in Bioengineering, working at the Animal Cell Technology Unit at iBET/ITQB, received a Poster Award at the EMBO Practical Course “Extracellular Vesicles: from Biology to Biomedical Applications”, held in Heidelberg, Germany.
The course was attended by PhD and Postdoctoral researchers interested in the biomedical application of extracellular vesicles (EV).
The awarded poster describes some of the preliminary work Filipa and Katharina Kasper have been developing for the past 5 months on EV isolation from hiPSC and hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes along several differentiation and maturation stages.
EMBO (European Molecular Biology Organization), a sister organization of EMBL (European Molecular Biology Laboratory), is one of the world’s leading training institutions, supporting researchers at all stages of their careers to exchange scientific information, and to build a research environment where they can achieve their best work.
