Biochemistry Focus webinar series - CRISPR gene editing in the Xenopus model system

Webinar

21 Feb 2025 - 21 Feb 2025

Online

Welcome to the Biochemistry Focus webinar series, organized by the Biochemical Society and Portland Press.

CRispR is a powerful and widely used tool. However, there are subtle variations in approaches depending on the target organism and purpose. In this webinar, we will hear from Dr Annie Godwin from the University of Portsmouth, who will discuss the range of approaches used by the European Xenopus Resource Centre to create transgenic frog lines. The European Xenopus Resource Centre (EXRC) is situated in Portsmouth, United Kingdom and provides tools and services to support researchers using Xenopus models. Funded by the Welcome Trust, NERC and BBSRC, the EXRC depends on researchers to obtain and deposit Xenopus transgenic and mutant lines, Xenopus in-situ hybridization clones, Xenopus specific antibodies and other resources with the centre.

Invited speaker:
• Dr Annie Godwin, University of Portsmouth, UK

The webinar will be chaired by Dr Garry Scarlett, Associate Head at the University of Portsmouth, UK and member of the Biochemical Society's Research Area I: Genes.
