"Blood EVs" is an ISEV Workshop on all things related to extracellular vesicles of blood: how to obtain, profile, and use them. The event will be held in Helsinki, Finland, from 1-2 September 2022 and will be preceded by an Education Day on 31 August. The Workshop will be in-person only, and participants have already been selected and notified. However, there will be a virtual option for Education Day. If you would like to participate virtually in the Education Day, please register here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/BloodEducationDay Download the full program or view below. Short talks and roundtable discussions will revolve around four themes: Day 1. Blood EVs as biomarkers
Day 2. Blood EVs as therapeutics
Only ISEV members may attend the Workshop; if you have been invited and are not a member, please visit https://www.isev.org/page/Membership to sign up. A poll on EV practices will be sent out in advance of the meeting.
