3rd Oceania mouse Transgenic & Assisted Reproduction Technologies symposium

 

Welcome to the 3rd Oceania mouse Transgenic & Assisted Reproduction Technologies symposium!

Academic and technical staff working in the fields of Transgenesis & Assisted Reproduction Technologies (TART) gather every 18 months at the International Society for Transgenic Technologies (ISTT) meetings to discuss the latest achievements in the field, and share their knowledge to improve animal welfare whilst addressing highly technical questions that are vital to biomedical research.

In 2013, the first “Oceania” version of these meetings was held in Brisbane to bring together all “mouse transgenic” professionals in Asia-Pacific (Australia, New-Zealand, Japan) in an informal setting. This facilitated the exchange of information and initiated the ISTT “down-under” network.

Capitalising on this great initiative, the second Oceania meeting was held in Hobart in 2015 at the University of Tasmania (Utas). The network was officially created and Utas provided an IT forum where members could discuss their TART-related needs and questions. The Oceania network grew up to more than 50 members, and staff from new horizons (USA) joined the group.

This year, we are thrilled to host the 3rd Oceania mouse TART symposium at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) in Sydney! Join us to hear from local and international leaders in mouse genome editing, gene transfer techniques, reproductive engineering, and mouse embryology. The stellar line up of dynamic speakers in a high standing set up holds the promise of what will be an informative, inspiring and interactive symposium.

Registrations are free, and attendance is strictly limited, so visit our website and don’t miss out on this exciting event.

Looking forward to welcoming you at the 3rd Oceania mouse Transgenic & Assisted Reproduction Technologies symposium!
