Invitation to PRIMO Workshop - University of Manchester - July 24: Controlling cell microenvironment topography and biochemistry with custom photopatterning

Alvéole, the University of Manchester and the Welcome Trust Centre for Cell Matrix Research invite you to a workshop on the control of the cell microenvironment topography and biochemistry using PRIMO custom photopatterning system which will be held after the Matrix Biology Europe meeting.

Date: Tuesday 24th of July 2018

Time: 14:00 – 18:00

Location: University of Manchester – Michael Smith Building, B3011 – Oxford Road – Manchester, M139PT

We will present and demo a new contactless and maskless UV-based technology – PRIMO – for custom, quantitative and multiple protein micropatterning compatible with standard cell culture substrates, stiff or soft, flat or microstructured. PRIMO opens new possibilities for applications such as the control of cell adhesion at single-cell and cell population levels, cell migration, cell confinement, or to rapidly manufacture custom microstructured soft substrates.

This workshop will also include a hands-on session to allow the participants to try the technology for themselves. Click here for further information.
