Institut Pasteur Korea's signature training course, "High Content Screening (HCS) for Therapeutics Discovery," finished up successfully on September 1st.

A total of 20 researchers and students attended various education sessions on advanced screening technologies, including cell-based assay development, automated microscopy utilization, and low-content/high-content screening. 

In addition, they also participated in practical trainings to learn about the entire process of High Content Screening and the seminars conducted by speakers from the Pasteur Network and leading industries in the field.

On the last day of the program, group presentations and Q&A sessions were carried out. Additionally, there were course evaluations to enhance the learning experience as well as a gathering to expand the global network. After that, the program had come to an end  with a closing ceremony and commemorative photo session.
