Join the Skeletal Muscle Research Section for a webinar session that aims to provide education and awareness of emerging ex vivo New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) for skeletal muscle research. We encourage researchers, clinicians, trainees, and industry scientists interested in skeletal muscle biology, disease modeling, regenerative medicine, and gene therapy to attend as they will leave with a broader understanding of current model capabilities, translational applications, and opportunities for integrating ex vivo NAMs into their research.
