Spring workshop on 3D organotypic models of oral carcinogenesis
Costea's group at CCBIO will host the Spring Workshop on 3D Models of Oral Carcinogenesis in Norway at Ustaoset, in collaboration with the EU COST Action INTERCEPTOR, from May 5th to May 11th, 2025.
Main content
Professor Costea is part of the COST INTERCEPTOR Action Management Committee, an EU action focusing on advancing oral cancer prevention by developing innovative strategies for managing oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMD). Costea is co-leader of the WG3 on e-tools within INTERCEPTOR, contributing to the development of digital solutions for patient monitoring and early detection.
The spring workshop will provide theoretical and hands-on training in isolating primary cells from normal and neoplastic oral mucosa and constructing 3D in vitro models for studying stepwise models of oral carcinogenesis. Participants will gain expertise in harvesting and analyzing these models for research applications.
The workshop and training schools, held at the University of Bergen and Oslo, Norway, from May 5th to 11th, 2025, focus on primary cell isolation and 3D step-wise models of oral carcinogenesis.
The school will host 12 participants in each location, including young researchers/lab technicians (from abroad), local trainers, and guest speakers.
