@Flamengo a flamengotv já começou muito mal! Não tem contato direto com o torcedor, levam 3 dias pra responder e-mail , fazem dupla cobrança… um verdadeiro caos! Essa é a tão falada profissionalização?

Colleagues that work with cell culture, I am going to begin some preliminary work with HL-1 cardiomyocytes this summer. I have basic wet lab experience performing ELISAS but have no cell culture experience. Any workshops or other resources that you recommend?
