Webinar—Breathing new life into hypoxia research
Although the significance of hypoxia in biological processes is well known, creating model systems with accurate control of hypoxic conditions is extremely difficult without access to elaborate systems that allow precise control and maintenance of temperature, humidity, and gases (CO2 and O2) during an experiment. In this webinar we cover:
- Overview of hypoxia in human diseases
