Masterclass: Patient-Derived Intestinal Organoids (PDIOs) for Cystic Fibrosis Research

This masterclass provides in-depth theoretical and practical training in the use of patient-derived intestinal organoids (PDIOs) for cystic fibrosis (CF) research, with a strong emphasis on disease relevance and translational potential. The course connects basic science, clinical CF research, and organoid technology.

When: 23/09- 25/09 2026

Where: Utrecht, the Netherlands

Costs: max. 200 euros for participation, help can be provided with looking for travel grants

Who are we looking for?

Technicians, PhD candidates, postdoctoral researchers and early-career clinicians/scientists. The masterclass explicitly welcomes researchers outside CF who wish to apply their expertise to CF-related questions and participants aiming to develop or strengthen a CF-focused research line.

How to apply

Apply via this google sheet form, including a short motivation letter and a brief description of current research and intended use of PDIOs.

Register before April 6th.
