Participants will learn design of CRISPR targets using bioinformatics tools, generation of gene knock-outs\/knock-ins, and target validation using the most current technologies. The course will be split into two groups (mammalian cells&nbsp;<strong>OR<\/strong>&nbsp;mice) based on participants\u2019 expertise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please note that all participants are expected to engage in all sessions. Participants should plan for approximately 1 hour extra per day for self paced learning modules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What past participants say about the course<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cThis course has a lot to offer- from experienced speakers to experienced trainers.
