Liquid biopsies have several advantages including being minimally invasive, allowing repeated sampling and sampling is often clinical routine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This course will provide an overview of the several techniques to detect and analyse liquid biopsy-based analytes such as circulating tumour cells, cell-free tumor-DNA (ctDNA), miRNA, extracellular vesicles, mRNA, carbohydrates and proteins. Participants will be introduced to all aspects ranging from proper sampling through analyte analysis and final data analysis. Experimentally, we will demonstrate ultrasensitive ctDNA analysis using sequencing and digital PCR. In addition, targeted miRNA profiling and flow cytometry with single-cell analysis will be highlighted. We will cover aspects of other analytes by lectures and we will have a strong focus on applications, especially cancer applications. Aspects of biobanking and clinical implementation will also be highlighted<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Audience<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This course targets scientists entering the field of liquid biopsy analysis and wanting to learn about the benefits and limitations of different approaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Modules\/Resources<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Ultra-sensitive mutation detection using sequencing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Flow cytometry and single-cell analysis<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Digital PCR applications in the liquid biopsy workflow<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hands-on data analysis and interpretations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Learning Outcomes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Participants will receive an overview of various experimental workflows in liquid biopsies, from sample preparation to data analysis. The course provides an overview of current theories, methods and emerging applications. Whereby a strong focus will be on experimental design, best practices, pitfalls as well as dos and don\u2019ts. After the course, participants should be able to assess the best methods for their application as well as design their experiment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What past participants say about the course<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&#8220;This was a great course that has helped me understand the basics, as well as gain in-depth knowledge on liquid biopsies.
