Charles River Surgical Technique Workshop

Oct 17 2013

This Surgical Technique Workshop is geared towards beginner to moderately skilled surgeons and combines didactic and hands-on training in surgical techniques for the laboratory mouse or rat. Students will learn the critical components required to perform survival rodent surgery, including aseptic technique, anesthesia and analgesia. The format of the workshop is such that the student-teacher ratio remains low and enables more direct participation and guidance. 

This workshop is divided into two half-day sessions with each session focusing on a particular surgical procedure. Included in the registration fees are course materials, animal models, student manuals and lunch. Students have the option to register for one or both sessions. Charles River is deeply grateful to Michigan State University for hosting this workshop.
