Welcome to BioSciConcepts 

Our 2012 Schedule is below!

What our customers have said!

" I came to this training program with many pre-conceived ideas about the difficulty of insect cell culture.  I did not have experience with insect/baculovirus culture and was always told that it was difficult to understand.  Dr Fawcett explained even the minor details in a clear, fun and exciting fashion.  His love for the work was clearly demonstrated in the way he taught the material and I understood everything  He made it all seem simple. (And about BioTechnical Institute of Maryland, Inc.)  I was also blown away by the fact that this organization was helping people have been forgot to develop skills, self worth and a career. BioSciConcepts and BTI are bringing knowledge, hope and a future to those who need it". Lois Commodore, Ariad Pharmaceuticals.

"I believe you are the best instructor I have been to in my life, thank you!".  Humera Khan, Research Specialist, Johns Hopkins Medical Institute.

"Thanks Tim, for bringing the wonder back into science for me again".  Jon Strauss, Momenta Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

"Designed well for cell culture illeterates like me.  Four days were loaded with a whole lot of technical information that the instructor gained by experience over years". S. Narasimha Murthy Ph.D.  Assistant Professor-Pharmaceutics, The University of Mississippi.

"We send many of our own employees to their applied hands-on training to fill gaps in these employees' scientific training. These sessions may be relevant to you or others in your organization as well".  Invitrogen
