Through the Bio-Trac program (sponsored by the Foundation for the Education in the Sciences, Inc. at the NIH); the MFSP program will continue to provide one-week lecture and “hands-on” laboratory training workshops in different areas of biotechnology that are topical and are in demand in the sciences. Recent programs have focused on the areas of Recombinant DNA Methodology; Stem Cells: Techniques and Methods; DNA Microarrays: Development, Fabrication and Methods; and Mammalian Cell Culture. Bio-Trac offers over 37 different lecture and ‘hands-on” training workshops that are held on the NIH campus.
