Webinar Highlights:

This webinar will introduce the Cre-loxP system, a powerful genetic tool that has revolutionized biological research by allowing for conditional gene knockout, knockdown, and overexpression. We will cover the history of the genetic recombination systems, discuss how they enable precise control of gene expression in specific cell types or at specific developmental stages, and present GenoBioTX’s genetically modified models utilizing this method.


Meet Our Speaker:

Dr. Andrei E. Golovko received Master of Science  in Microbiology at Moscow State University in 1992, MBA in Marketing at Rutgers University, Newark, NJ in 2001, and PhD at The Institute of Cell Biology and Genetic Engineering, Kiev, Ukraine in 2003. Dr. Andrei E. Golovko has more than 29 years of experience in genetics, genomics, comparative medicine and disease modeling working in both industry and academic environment including BASF,  Schering-Plough and Texas A&M. His demonstrated success in knockout mouse production includes designing, creating and analyzing genetically modified mice carrying null mutations for various potential drug targets including NPC1L1, the proven target for Schering's multibillion-dollar drug Zetia. At present time he serves Associate Director Business Development .
