Course in conjunction with ESHG Print

Hands-on workshop
”Real-time qPCR and HRM for genetic analysis”

TATAA Biocenter qPCR Training course


This 2-day introductory course consists of both theoretical and practical parts where you get to perform Real-time qPCR experiments yourself under experienced supervision. The course will give you a deeper understanding of the fundamentals of qPCR, including primer and probe design, optimization of qPCR reactions and basic data analysis. It will also introduce you to High Resolution Melt analysis, HRM, which is a valuable method to analyze genetic differences. DNA melting curves are used to distinguish differences of down to single base substitutions and can be used for SNP analysis , Gene scanning or Methylation analysis.

Date and Time: 10-11 June 2010, 09:00-17-00

Venue: TATAA Biocenter, Odinsgatan 28, Gothenburg, Sweden. How to find.
