Tiny Packages with Big Impact: UVA EV Workshop 2024
Throwback to an incredible week at last year’s Tiny Packages with Big Impact: Workshop on Extracellular Vesicles at the University of Virginia! The event brought together researchers from around the world for an engaging exploration of EV science, featuring expert lectures, hands-on training in isolation and characterization techniques, and interactive poster presentations. Attendees delved into cutting-edge technologies, shared their work, and built lasting connections within the EV research community.
The experience extended beyond the lab, with highlights like tailored feedback sessions, networking dinners, and a scenic team-building hike to Humpback Rock in the Blue Ridge Mountains. It was a perfect blend of science, collaboration, and inspiration.

When asked "Would you recommend this course" here's what our attendees had to say!
"I would highly recommend the course to anybody just getting started in the EV field, starting alone by reading literature can be daunting and this course was super helpful."
"I would definitely recommend this course to others. The course is intense but worth the while."
"I would recommend it to anyone starting in the EV field or who may be working on an EV project in isolation (not with EV expertise already). It provides a very inviting space to be a novice and learn the small but very important details of a very technical field. At no point did I feel like I couldn't ask a question - I was all but sure the trainee next to me would have the same thought!"
"When I first learned about EV field, I didn't know how to approach and had too many questions by just reading papers. The workshop was practical for beginner in the field with hands on experience. I learned a lot what is important thing to consider and how to approach for the next step. The class gave me great insight for my research in the future."
"The speakers, teachers, organizers were all highly dedicated and committed to the bigger cause of establishing best practices and standardization in the emerging area of extra vesicular particular research."
"It was beyond my expectations. When I reflect on the experience, I can't believe how much I learned and became prepared to plan future studies with EVs."
